Recently listened to #WrightThompson ‘s reading of his book #TheBarn. Super worth the listen or read. #booksky 💙📚

This book was incredible. I’m sure that it’s banned in many southern states. It was powerful. I knew very little about the murder of Emmett Till and what little I knew learned later than I should’ve. Read it. Listen to it. It is something we should all know about. #thebarn #wrightthompson

It was by #wrightthompson who wrote about #thebarn in @theatlantic.com

Ichiro's return to Seattle won't resolve the battle raging within him How five days in February reveal what Seattle's signing of Ichiro cannot. The future Hall of Famer is haunted by the life he can't escape.

Awaiting word on which #BBWAA member's parents ignored them as a child and so they need the attention voting against #IchiroSuzuki's #baseballhall candidacy brings.

Until then, read this #WrightThompson profile of the soon-to-be Hall of Famer. Killer writing here.

Currently reading #thebarn by #WrightThompson not far into it but really good read to this point

You may think you know the full story--the white killers were acquitted but then confessed in a magazine, Till whistled at a white woman to seal his fate--but there's so much more to it. Read this as soon as you can; it's that good. #wrightthompson #BookSky #bookreview @penguinpress.bsky.social
