Birthday Tribute Toni Morrison: The Pieces I Am Screening and Talkback

Since her passing on August 5, 2019, Toni Morrison’s novels, essays, and interviews comfort and continually remind us of her genius. She is one of the most profound writers and thinkers who’s ever lived.

Under Timothy Greenfield-Sanders’ careful direction and in moving interviews with Oprah Winfrey, Hilton Als, Walter Mosley, and many more admirers, Morrison’s incredible journey from a spirited little black girl from Ohio to Pulitzer Prize-winner shines and inspires.
