Dr. Bowles introduces the latest book from Obsidian Press: Lying in a Tomb: The Mummies of Guanajuato, A Memoir by Dr. Jeannette M. Potts.

In Guanajuato, Mexico, naturally mummified bodies were discovered after exhumations from the city cemetery. Over time, these human remains became part of one of Mexico’s most haunting and controversial museum displays.

Dr. Potts shares a deeply personal memoir about death, Mexico, a brutal romance, a whispered curse, and the fear that Guanajuato might claim her too.

This is not simply a book about mummies. It asks difficult questions: Who were these people? Why are they displayed? What do we owe the dead? And what happens when we stand face to face with mortality?

This book is an absolute masterpiece.

Did you know that literature laureate Toni Morrison championed the work of other African American writers as an editor?

As well as writing eleven novels and three essay collections in which she often addressed the harsh consequences of racism in the United States and the Black American experience, Morrison became the first black woman to hold a senior editor position at Random House in New York City in the late 1960s.

Morrison tirelessly championed black literature by prominent figures such as Angela Davis, Gayl Jones and even Muhammad Ali. She famously edited ‘The Black Book’, a rich exploration of the history and experience of African Americans in the US.

She left her role after more than a decade to focus on writing her own novels, having worked on her fiction late at night and “in the automobile and places like that”. She became the first black woman to win the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1993.

OUTSIDER
***********
Many countries in sub-Saharan Africa are considered racially or ethnically diverse. They include South Africa, Botswana, Kenya, Zambia, Nigeria, Tanzania, [Tanzania has more than one hundred ethnic groups, and Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), with more than two hundred ethnic groups].

Many religions are practised in the region and the religious landscape in Sub-Saharan Africa is characterized by the most diverse range of practices and beliefs.

In spite of all this diversity, ladies and gents, there’s conflict among social groups. Some minority social groups may feel like they're being singled out for all the wrong reasons.
