The What’s The Scuttlebutt Podcast This week, we are joined by author Dr. Roger Newman to discuss his new novel, “Boys”. The book follows the story of Alex, a young Black boy who finds refuge on a dairy farm after his family is murdered by the Ku Klux Klan during the Great Depression.
Taken in by the farm’s White owners, Alex grows up alongside their son, Pete, and the two consider themselves brothers. Together, they navigate the harsh realities of Jim Crow-era racial intolerance in the South.
