Page Passion
Page Passion asked Roxane Gay:

In Bad Feminist, you discuss how there is a lack of diversity in television and film; do you feel is there more diversity in the literary world than in Hollywood?

Roxane Gay I sure don't. Diversity is a problem in nearly all artistic endeavors.

Hi Roxane, do you have a plan yet for "How to be Heard" now that you've pulled it from S&S? I'd like to buy a copy.

Tricia Nociti asked Roxane Gay:

Last week I went and saw the movie Hidden Figures. As I was watching I was wondering about your thoughts on it (movie or book)? I've not yet read the book. I listened to your essay regarding The Help and it really, really gave me a new perspective on it.

Bea
Bea asked Roxane Gay:

Hi, Roxanne. First want to say how much I have enjoyed " Bad Feminist". As a PR woman born & raisedin NYC during those turbulent 60s & 70s, it fills me with pride to read your work. What advise can you give me when confronted with race issues today that is now undisguised under this administration?
