DESCRIPTION:KPFA Radio 94.1 FM with C-Span presents\nJill Louise Busby  & Sabrina 
 Jacobs \n\nUnfollow Me: Essays on Complicity \n\n"Jill lets us know out the 
 gate that she ain't come to play. This book is real, raw, and unrelenting. 
 Dark, satirical, full of brilliance and bad ass'ness. Now is definitely not 
 the time to be unfollowing Jill."  -Killer Mike\n\n"Unfollow Me forced me 
 to challenge who I've presented myself as, to confront the invisible tether 
 between irreverence and conformity, especially as it pertains to 
 conversations and stances around identity and technology. Busby's voice is 
 sharp. Sharper yet is the feeling that Busby is asking us to complicate our 
 arguments and muster up the moxie to see our many selves in a more honest 
 light. And for that, I am grateful."   -Jason Reynolds, # 1 New York Times 
 bestselling author \n\nBloomsbury is excited to publish Unfollow Me: Essays 
 on Complicity by Jill Louise Busby, sometimes known as 
 Jillisblack.\n\nUnfollow Me is about tokenism, micro-fame, and inhabiting 
 spaces-real and virtual, black and white-where complicity is the price of 
 entry. Busby's social commentary manages to be both wryly funny and 
 achingly open-hearted as she recounts her shape-shifting moves among the 
 subtle hierarchies of progressive communities. Unfollow Me is a sharply 
 personal and self-questioning critique of white fragility (and other words 
 for racism), respectability politics (and other words for shame), and all 
 the places where fear masquerades as progress.\n\nJill Louise Busby spent 
 years in the nonprofit sector specializing in Diversity & Inclusion. In 
 2016, Busby uploaded a one-minute video about race, white institutions, and 
 faux liberalism to Instagram. As her pithy persona Jillisblack became an 
 it-voice weighing in on all things race-based.\n\nSabrina Jacobs is the 
 producer and host of KPFA's popular show "A Rude Awakening." In addition. 
 She is a frequent host and interviewer on KPFA's Zoom webinar series with 
 contemporary authors.\n\nSuggested Donation $5-$20.\n
