INTERVIEW ON THE PRICE OF BUSINESS SHOW, MEDIA PARTNER OF THIS SITE.
Recently Kevin Price, Host of the nationally syndicated Price of Business Show, interviewed NY Times bestselling author Tracey Baptiste about her book, Mermaid & Pirate.
According to a statement “During Memorial Day Weekend – Disney’s LIVE action remake of THE LITTLE MERMAID premieres in theaters! It stars Halle Bailey – the first and so far ONLY black Ariel. Leading up to this momentous big screen affair is national dialogue about – yes – mermaids! And one of the go-to voices about these aquatic creatures is New York Times Bestselling Author, TRACEY BAPTISTE, who wrote an influential op-ed for the Times entitled: ‘Mermaids Have Always Been Black.’
“This op-ed was the turning of the tide that led Tracey to also write a new book called: MERMAID & PIRATE – out next month and just in time for the movie remake!! It’s about a Black mermaid and a Black pirate – characters who have long existed in African and Caribbean fairy tales and lore – but who have been noticeably absent in American popular culture – until NOW!”
