What is white fragility? Austin Channing Brown joins us to explore this necessary but misunderstood term.

Story Men - April 30, 2018
Summer Escapes, Summer Discipline
With Infinity War opening last weekend, the Summer movie season has officially kicked off. The StoryMen turn their annual Summer Movie Preview into a game: can we predict the three biggest box-office winners (after Infinity War)? Can we predict the biggest bust? And what should the loser have to do? YOU decide. PLUS: we have some summer writing goals as well, so we talk about how to find our writing discipline and rhythm.
