Let’s talk! Tom and Cookie would like to start a conversation about race relations in the Metro Detroit region.  We want to share stories of growing up in Detroit in the 1960s and what we, as a community, can do to improve open communication between blacks and white and people of all races. Please contact us to request a date for your upcoming event. Whether you’re looking for a book club discussion, book signing event, or just a chance to gather a group for coffee and conversation, we’d love to be part of your plans.  Here’s a list of our upcoming appearances.
