Globally Lit

The BALDWIN100 is a collaborative arts, scholarship and cultural project encompassing a year-long series of initiatives designed to convene a wider Washington area audience to engage deeply with James Baldwin’s work. By celebrating Why Baldwin Matters, the Alan Cheuse International Writers Center is in a unique position to highlight a global Baldwin, whose impact on American intellectual and cultural life holds promise for a just world. The final outcomes of the initiative are: connecting the individual to their role to progress America towards a more just society.

Globally Lit is a podcast that goes deep on international literature and translation. In each episode, we interview an international author, their English translator, and share book recommendations from independent booksellers.
