Huge news! I linked earlier this year to the James Baldwin Project I edited with Jennifer Bowen Hicks for Hunger Mountain; well, last week I found two things out pertaining to this year's Best American Essay anthology that will be coming out in a couple of weeks:
- Kim Dana Kupperman's essay "Tell Me How Long the Train's Been Gone: A Letter to James Baldwin on the Twenty-Fifth Anniversary of His Passing" was selected as a notable essay for this year!
- My co-editor Jennifer Bowen Hicks also had an essay included as notable in the anthology: "Attention," originally published in the North American Review!
