- Personal Journals
This week we welcome Kathy Burnette to the podcast. Kathy is the owner of The Brain Lair, a bookstore in South Bend focused on developing empathy and building community with inclusive books. The store was recently included in The Oprah Magazine's "125 Black-Owned Bookstores in America That Amplify the Best in Literature" and next week is hosting a virtual event with Chasten Buttigieg to discuss his new book.
Kathy's work is unique and it is vital to the life and growth of our city. A city our size in the American Midwest probably shouldn’t have a Brain Lair, but she has chosen to do this work here in South Bend.
Until we're on the other side of the pandemic, you can find the store at brainlairbooks.com and on Twitter @brainlairbooks.
