Dr. Mona Lisa Saloy

My guest today is an author, folklorist, educator, scholar, and former Poet Laureate of Louisiana.

Dr. Mona Lisa Saloy writes about her life as a black Creole in her 7th Ward neighborhood, as well as about the larger perspective of the black experience, in Louisiana and beyond.

This discussion was a joy. I hope you enjoy it, too.
