Episode 101: Tough Question, Young Adult Literature, A Brief Hiatus

In this episode, we speak to PEN America CEO Suzanne Nossel about Trump, social media, and news deserts for our weekly TOUGH QUESTIONS segment. Then, Gina Chung talks to award-winning YA author Francisco X. Stork, whose new book ILLEGAL published earlier this week. They discuss how the book was informed by his own experiences as both a lawyer and an immigrant and the importance of highlighting social issues in literature for young people. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/penamerica/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/penamerica/support
