Interviewing Isabel Wilkerson

When I moved to Seattle I never imagined the opportunity to interview the author of one of my favorite books, “The Warmth of Other Suns: The Epic Story of America's Great Migration” by Isabel Wilkerson, would present itself. Because of an exhibit at Seattle Art Museum (SAM) earlier this year it all came together.
