Author and activist, James Baldwin, explored the complexities of race, identity, love, and class with searing insight.

Head to Stories RIGHT NOW and see where stacks of *free* James Baldwin books can be found. Take one for yourself and one for someone you’d like to introduce to Baldwin’s revelatory work.
