About this listen

Get your drink and get your seat, because this week we're diving into Do What Godmother Says by L.S. Stratton and we'll be connecting the dots, gasping at the twists, and discuss the ways that some artists have sacrificed for their artistic freedom.

We're following the story of a woman who inherits a painting from a lost artist of the Harlem Renaissance. But this isn't just a family heirloom; it's a one-way ticket to a mystery that goes back generations. This Godmother didn't just want her artists' paintings; she wanted to control their very lives.

So, grab your favorite drink and join us as we talk about this gripping book based on actual historical figures! Let's just say, this "Godmother" is more "wicked" than "fairy."

Here's the link to the article we mentioned!
