His commentary is heard on television networks such as ABC\, MSNBC\, FOX\, and CNN\, and his work has been featured in The Washington Post\, CNN.com\, and BET. He is the author of the instant New York Times bestseller The Grift: The Downward Spiral of Black Republicans from the Party of Lincoln to the Cult\, as well as Live Through This and Burn Down Master’s House. A Phi Beta Kappa graduate of Rutgers University with a B.A. in English and African American Studies\, he is originally from Philadelphia and can be found online at clay-cane.com. \n \nAbout the book: \nInspired by true\, long-buried stories of enslaved people who dared to fight back\, a searing portrayal of resistance for readers of Colson Whitehead\, Jesmyn Ward\, and Percival Everett\, from Clay Cane\, award-winning journalist and New York Times bestselling author of The Grift. \nAs turmoil simmers within a divided nation\, smoke from another blaze begins to rise. Sparked by individual acts of resistance among those enslaved across the American South\, their seemingly disparate rebellions fuel a singular inferno of justice\, connecting them in ways quiet at times\, explosive at others. As these flames rise\, so will they. \nLuke\, quick-witted and literate\, and Henri\, a man with a strong and defiant spirit\, forge an unbreakable bond at a Virginia plantation called Magnolia Row. Both seek escape from unimaginable cruelty. And sure as the fires of hell\, Luke and Henri will leave their mark\, sparking resistance among the lives they touch… \nOne is Josephine\, a young\, sharp\, and observant girl who wields silence as her greatest weapon. A witness to Luke and Henri’s resilience\, she listens\, watches\, waits for the moment to make her move. \nThen there is Charity Butler\, her husband a formerly enslaved man who proved his ferocity as a young boy standing alongside Josephine. At his encouragement\, Charity fights for her freedom in court and wins – only to battle a deeply unjust system designed to destroy the life they’ve built. \nAnd finally\, there is Nathaniel\, who ruthlessly exploits other Black people and mirrors the cruelty of the white men who\, like him\, are enslavers. A perversion of the system of slavery\, his fragile and contradictory rule will become a catalyst of its own. \nInspired by the true stories of the profoundly courageous men and women who dared to fight back\, Burn Down Master’s House is a singular tour de force of a novel—breathtaking in scope\, compassion\, and a timeliness that speaks powerfully to our present era. \n… \nDoors open at 6:30pm. \nStreet parking available. Wheelchair accessible entrance available. \nA ll ticket sales are final and non-refundable. \nBags larger than a handbag will not be permitted
