RUN IT BACK WITH D. WATKINS

In this episode of The Truth in This Art: Run It Back, I reconnect with acclaimed author, writer, and professor D. Watkins for his second appearance on the podcast. Known for his powerful storytelling, D. shares how his work continues to explore themes of identity, community, and resilience. We dive into the impact of his recent accolades, including the Gordon Parks Fellowship and the James Beard award, and how these experiences have shaped his creative journey. Along the way, we discuss the importance of staying true to one’s craft, the challenges of navigating the art world, and the value of supporting one another within the community.
