ORDER THE BOOK
  “Once the truth starts coming out it will cause this kind of confusion amongst the members of the dominant society, which sets off a chain. So I think [Traces of the Trade] is a good beginning. But what now?.”

— Dr. Jessie Ruth Gaston, quoted in Inheriting the Trade
 


Schedule


When Inheriting the Trade was published on January 9, 2008 by Beacon Press Tom DeWolf began a book tour which lasted through July 2008. Since that time he has traveled extensively throughout the United States speaking to groups at high schools, colleges, universities, churches, libraries, museums, and conferences. Conversations at these events regarding the legacy of slavery and oppression throughout our nation’s history—and challenges we face today as a result—have been rich and thought-provoking. Tom plans to spend most of summer 2009 with his family (especially his grandchildren!) as well as reading and writing before resuming a speaking schedule in the fall. If you are interested in having Tom speak to your group or organization please contact Jennifer Carr at Borderline Media: jennifer@borderlinemedia.net.
