Thank you for the interview. This conversation gives and additional element to the show with the stories about the building relationships between the cooks and the things that happen behind the scenes.

I can listen to Mr. Gates and Rev. Cleaver all day long.

Today, June 19th, four years ago EXACTLY died sadly....great writer! I am reading The Angel's Game...just finished The Shadow of the Wind.

This is what happens when the transition doesn’t quite take place. Of course, it really can’t.

Really good book

People born in Brooklyn are real Americans. Everybody else is an outsider

I couldn’t find her birth year anywhere on the internet.

Love the material on All Creatures Great and Small.

Rachel Khong's 'Real Americans' is a compelling addition to our Readers Club, offering a profound exploration of identity and belonging in contemporary America. Join us for an engaging discussion on this thought-provoking novel that masterfully captures the complexities of the American experience.

I'm 77, so that makes me 3 years older than Faye. I can say with authority that you captured the mood and mentality of 1968 perfectly. I got goose bumps reading some passages.

thank you...

Ketterdam is Savannah Georgia in the early 1970's. I know, I was there. Six of Crows was like old home week for me

American obsession with money and choice. Too many bloody relevancy in this wonderful masterpiece by Ms. Khong. Thank you!

Nikki Giovanni🌹 ❤🙏🏾❤️

How have I missed this KZfaq channel?!?? So happy I found it!

PBS telling you what books to read? Well, at least we now know what books to avoid.

It would help if the presenters would give introductory information about the genre . I hope you ladies can also offer some recommendations for books dealing with contemporary issues, considering that the western politicians are hell bent on provoking Russia into a hot war. We are at the edge of WW3 in Europe.

PBS books 😂 left wing, woke indoctrination. Yeah. Right😂😂😂

The way he can describe situations in everyday life is pure genius.

Now my vision for Quindaro ruins make it like Berkeley Park in KCMO and put a sky lift that connects to parkville for the underground railroad connection and bring back the riverboat like use to be docked in kck

Great VISIONARIES

They even wanted to enslave the Mexicans, in a article by the New York newspaper the manifest destiny, a pro war press, they stated that if they were to impoverish the Mexicans, despoil they of everything they got, they would make the best laborers and slaves, for more productive and more imbecile than the Africans, and quite easy to obtain. They downplayed Mexican competency and said you could go all thoroughly Mexico and find these imbeciles, poor Mexicans, once descendants of the Great Mayan civilization that they not are slaves in their own land, could easily be tricked into indentureship, and they might even consent to their enslavement. In their eyes, a direct quote, Mexicans Indians Californians they all horrid, soon immigration and anglo Saxon industry will freeze them out, and like the coming fate of the Indian of this continent, they will cease to exist. Matter of fact, some of the best politicians of the day in 1846 during the Mexican war states that the Texas game and the Mexican war was one of the most bare faced criminal outrages ever committed, of which there is no moral justification or parallel to anything we know of, and that it was not only for the purpose of expanding slavery, but the intent to immortalize it and triple strengthen it , because of this fact they agreed, all the northern states of the union to oppose such measures and label the war as unconstitutional, illegally and aggressively commenced, by corrupt politicians and emissaries from the United States. Much of this can be found in the library of congress, just search up Mexican American war review and you’ll find most of the best works

I like to see him write a book on John l Burns hero at Gettysburg

I enjoyed the book and the interview. Thank you.

I'm looking forward to reading this book 💗

Lovely book. Great to see the author’s presentation.

I love this book! Such talented authors

I love love to read. However I mostly listen to my books so it would be amazing if there was a section set aside for audiobooks. Narrators are unsung heroes in my opinion. There are some of the most amazing narrators out there and it would be amazing to highlight them. Also, not all great book are narrated greatly. A perfect example of this is lord of the flies, which is narrated by the author but he doesn’t do his own book justice at all. Anyways it’s a suggestion. Maybe if narrators start to get more credit for their work we would be able to influence publishers to offer audiobooks on their own platforms. Audible under pays their authors sickeningly

Love to hear from people who have actually read the books. Thanks for all of the suggestions. 😊

Brendan Ballou speaks about his book "Plunder" on here. There you'll find out what a "good" guy Rubenstein. Hint: screwing people out of their pensions is his area of expertise.

Great resource for people who love to read! Thank you, PBS.

Enserio que Zafon hablando en ingles me suena muy raro, suena mas extrovertido

Whooooo love this. Keep em coming!

PBS, yes we receive tax payer money to lie

I have a 24 year old son with autism he hits me sometimes other times he can be loving . We are in the process of finding a residential . I read your book when bad thighs happen to good people. I pray every day church on Sunday. I ask GOD Why . But when I read this book and hear you speak it helps me understand. So thank you Rabbi Kushner

Never forget that, when confronted with her own racial bias, which became publicly known, Morgan Jerkins chose not to use her voice, not to stand up to her values and take accountability. She chose silence. As positive as her words are, they have turned out to be just that, words after all. Too bad

Nikki is amazing! I love her. She is wise and hilarious and says it as it is. We need more of this. ❤

2:39 start of acknowledgments 3:40 start of speech

Oh brother

She is racist towards whites. 🤮

I don't think I'd want to travel to my personal future bc of the Cassandra of it all. In this book, the past and future are malleable, but imagine if you learn the future and can't change it. It becomes like a hell you can't escape.

This guy is a boss!!! Love the positivity and the way he looks at life, glass half full 💯
