It’s hard to find two writers who are more important than Zadie Smith and Chimimanda Ngozi Adichie. Both women have written wonderfully well-recieved novels that often touch on race. On Wednesday, March 19 at 6:30pm EST they’ll be in conversation at the Schomberg Center and the discussion will be broadcast live.
What is especially is interesting is how Adichie’s most recent novel, "Americanah," has opened up dialogue between American-born black women and black women born in Caribbean and African countries. Will they discuss that? We’ll see. You cann follow along on Twitter with the hashtag #americanah.
