Bio: In his role at Consumer Reports, Brian examines inequities in the marketplace, in an effort to ensure fairness for consumers. For example, Brian has covered the growing trend of community fridges, refrigerators placed in public areas, stocked by the community and providing free food to those in need. His work helped shine a light on the increasing food insecurity brought about by the Coronavirus pandemic and the underlying inequities that created a need for this type of community intervention. Brian also looked at dietetics and how the cultural and language divide between healthcare professionals and the Black and Hispanic communities they served often made it difficult for these communities to receive the support they needed.

Damon Young

Author of THAT’S HOW THEY GET YOU – a collection of essays and short stories on Black humor

About the Book: From the Thurber Prize-winning author of What Doesn’t Kill You Makes You Blacker comes a pioneering collection of Black humor from some of the most acclaimed writers and performers at work today. A critic explores the paradox of finding community in “the dozens” while grieving. A violent town ritual causes an all-too-familiar moral panic. An email thread between friends on why we need an updated Green Book but for public toilets. These are just a few of the hilarious worlds contained in Damon Young’s groundbreaking anthology featuring the best, funniest, and Blackest essays, short stories, letters, and rants.

Bio: Pittsburgh writer DAMON YOUNG’s debut memoir, What Doesn’t Kill You Makes You Blacker: A Memoir in Essays (Ecco), won the Thurber Prize for American Humor. A founder of the culture blog Very Smart Brothas and creator and host of the Crooked Media podcast Stuck with Damon Young, Damon has been a contributing columnist for The Washington Post Magazine, a contributing opinion writer for The New York Times, and a columnist for GQ and was the inaugural writer-in-residence at the University of Pittsburgh’s David C. Frederick Honors College.
