What People Are Saying

Renina continues to
challenge herself and
give these types of
conversations a platform
away from the classroom.
i also think she grapples
with a lot of ideas and
i love that she?s not afraid
to put that work on display.
i?m thankful.

I’ve read your blog for a long time and this is
my first time responding. You give me reason
to think and improve upon myself and others.
Thank you.

    I would love to join but I can’t. I teach GMAT classes on Monday nights. The Tuesday night sessions are fine for me for now so I can just jump in at the end

    Questions I am thinking of:

    Broad Questions
    1. What has surprised you most about the book?

    Specific Questions

    1. Did you connect the murder rates in Newark to how slum lords treated Black renters in the 60′s? Page # ?

    2. What do you think of the fact that there use to be more registered Democrats than Republicans in the early sixties?
