Show Notes

Achy Obejas is a poet, translator, novelist, journalist, mother, baseball fan and now...repeat guest on our show! Today's conversation roams from protesting Canadian truckers to Joe Rogan to Free Speech to Achy's theory about "the proximity to Blackness" to the greatness of Roberto Clemente. And then it concludes with Achy's reading of her poem The President of Coca-Cola, a tribute to the great Ana Mendieta.
