Ben Fox and Native Son

Ben Fox is founder of the amazing book discovery site Shepherd.  Joe and Mark talk to Ben about a book that had a huge impact on him. Native Son, by Richard Wright, was assigned to Ben as a senior in high school. "I hated it from the depths of my soul, but now this book is strongly in my DNA," Ben says. He doesn't hate the story now, though it does haunt him. It's one of the top fifteen books he would recommend. Don't miss this great conversation about systematic racism, reading and Ben's pet project, the book discovery site Shepherd!
