"The Rest of the World"

Published: Oct. 23, 2020, 2 p.m.

Adam Schwartz has observed hundreds of kids in 22 years teaching in Baltimore public schools. He’s watched them fall in love, make crazy decisions, grapple with moral dilemmas, worry about where they fit in life. Schwartz distilled some of what he’s seen into eight short stories for his new book "The Rest of the World." We also discuss whether Schwartz, a white man, is the right one to tell the stories of black and brown teen-agers and young adults. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
