Author, journalist, columnist, and Library Trustee Calvin Trillin began his career covering the Civil Rights movement in the South in the 1960s. The issues he reported on resonate today and his early stories have been collected into one volume. Join us as he discusses JACKSON, 1964: And Other Dispatches from Fifty Years of Reporting on Race in America with author and New York Times columnist Sam Roberts.

Trillin, a regular contributor to the New Yorker since 1963, collects his insights and musings on race in America in previously published essays from over 50 years of reporting…, What’s shocking is how topical and relatively undated many of these essays seem today.
