In the words of the great American poet Gwendolyn Brooks: "We are each other's business; we are each other's harvest; we are each other's magnitude and bond.

In this episode my dad details some of the many jobs he had and how he moved from laborer to academic. He also shares how his income was always a communal offering to his family. As he reveals how his ingenuity placed him in better and better positions financially, he never fails to center his family and the ways his success was all of our success.

The Memoir My Dad Wouldn't Write is a radically honest conversation between a daughter and her dad. My dad has had an incredible life as a poet, activist, professor, and cultural worker. He wouldn't write a memoir, so this series of conversations is partly that.
