Dr. Brenda Greene interviews the author of Promise (Random House, 2023), a debut novel by poet and visual artist Rachel Eliza Griffiths. Woven in the story of Promise, a coming-of-age novel centered on two young Black girls, is the theme of what freedom means for a Black family in a country whose history of racism, discrimination, and violence permeates communities throughout the United States. Greene and Griffiths discuss the novel’s themes and symbolism, how poetry and art inform the novel’s structure, and Griffith’s writing process.
