Attending Howard University transformed Glory Edim’s life.

In this conversation, Glory reflects on her journey with Well-Read Black Girl, from its humble beginnings as a Brooklyn-based bookclub to its growth as a nonprofit organization. Glory also emphasizes the power of preserving Black stories as she discusses the legacy of her late father and the process of grieving and honoring his memory.
