Award-winning filmmaker, recording artist, professor, and bestselling author MK Asante joins Zibby to discuss NEPHEW, an explosive, intimate, and innovative memoir written as a love letter to a nephew who was shot nine times and survived. MK highlights the intentional connections between this book and his first memoir, BUCK, and then delves into his inspirations: his nephew; his brother, who was killed; his grandfather, who fought in the Civil Rights Movement; and African American culture, particularly through the lens of hip-hop. He also reflects on his journey as a multidisciplinary artist, from collaborating with Dr. Maya Angelou to co-writing the Monday Night Football anthem with Snoop Dogg and Chris Stapleton.
