SUMMARY:Conversations in Black and White with Deborah Roberts
DESCRIPTION:Join the conversation! New York Times bestselling authors Victoria Christopher Murray and Marie Benedict team up with award-winning ABC News journalist and 20/20 co-anchor Deborah Roberts to kick off a brand-new discussion series\, Conversations in Black & White. \nInspired and informed by the readers Victoria and Marie met while on tour discussing their novels. The Personal Librarian and The First Ladies\, this event will offer a wide-ranging conversation on race and friendship and provide a safe space where attendees from different backgrounds can listen\, share\, and ask questions. To help facilitate the conversation\, the authors will provide access to written guides and other materials focused on productive communication and looking at challenging subjects through the lens of fiction. \nVictoria and Marie have been surprised and honored by the ongoing interest in their own friendship. At their book events\, readers ask as many questions about the authors as they do about the incredible historical women the two write about. Readers seem fascinated by the duo’s close relationship and the frank\, often-difficult conversations they have as a Black and a white woman writing about historical racial issues during a time of current polarization in our country. Conversations in Black & White is Victoria and Marie’s effort to bring to a larger audience those important\, empowering\, and illuminating discussions. \nAbout Buxton Books\nOpened in 2016\, Buxton Books is an independent bookstore located on King Street\, the main thoroughfare in historic\, downtown Charleston\, South Carolina.
