Looking forward to my IG Live tomorrow with Josh Rushing. 9/17 12 pm PST/3 pm EST #repost @joshrushing: Be sure to catch Thursday’s IG Live with Walidah Imarisha, who I met in Portland a few years ago while on assignment for @AJFaultLines.   Walidah is a writer, historian, public scholar, poet, activist and professor committed to not only imagining but creating a better world without poverty, prisons and inequality. “What would it look like,” Imarisha asks, “to use the tens of billions of dollars spent on the prison system differently: for living wage jobs, for public education, for health care, for quality affordable housing, and more?” We’ll talk about this vision and why she believes even nonfiction books must be read partially as fiction… as well as race, gender, Star Wars, the creative process and what she’s learned about life along the way.
