Zibby is joined by Mira Jacob to talk about her latest book, Good Talk, which was named one of the best books of 2019 by the New York Times Book Review. The graphic memoir was the result of Mira's attempts to answer her young son's questions about race in America while dealing with the political developments of 2016 — especially those that took place within her own family. Mira tells Zibby how she was able to assemble this book despite not being an illustrator or a memoirist and how her husband's family has received her side of their shared story.Purchase on Amazon or Bookshop.Amazon: https://amzn.to/3m10EgUBookshop: https://bit.ly/2ZDyXTJ** Follow @totallybookedwithzibby on Instagram for listening guides and more. **(Music by Morning Moon Music.
