"Gathering of the Griots"

Radio Show

“Gathering of the Griots” is a radio show that breathes literary life into the airwaves from writers affiliated with the Soulful Chicago Book Fair. It lends a chance to hear OUR stories, from OUR point of view, for OUR benefit. Listen in to brother and sister authors who were courageous, hard-working and tenacious enough to put their power to the pen, and share their thoughts through the written word!
