Capital XTRA Book Club with Leah Davis

Vol 6: The Story Of Afro Hair

Telling the story of afro hair is not a simple task but it is a necessary one. This week's guest Kandace Chimbiri wanted to create an engaging and exciting book for children (and adults alike) to learn the rich history of afro hair, from the enterprising work of Madame CJ Walker to the iconic Josephine Baker. Join the book club using the hashtag #CapitalXTRABookClub and let's chat on twitter @leahhdaviss.

In this Capital XTRA pod, host Leah Davis sits down with legendary and rising black authors to delve into their latest written work. From gripping fiction to inspiring self-help books, Leah has created a space which uplifts and highlights black voices, while educating audiences on topics like racial injustice, female empowerment and more.
