Word Up welcomes writer and anthropologist Asale Angel-Ajani to discuss her memoir Fugitive Archives: My Family and the American Myth of Belonging, an incisive, lyrical exploration of one family’s history that radically overturns American myths about race, violence, and belonging. In a moment defined by moral exhaustion, rising violence, and historical erasure, Fugitive Archives lays bare a nation’s unresolved past through one family’s story of grief, betrayal, courage, and love.
