Jane talked about everything from trying to understand the motivations of immigrant parents to preserving culture, from creating Nigerian heroines in fiction to her childhood dream of being a Disney channel actress… and even her affinity for Miley Cyrus songs.** Follow @totallybookedwithzibby on Instagram for listening guides and more. **(Music by Morning Moon Music.
