It’s Book Club week! We start by discussing the May book club book The Wrong End of the Table: A Mostly Comic Memoir of a Muslim American Woman Just Trying to Fit in. We then talk about our bonus book club book White Fragility: Why It’s So Hard for White People to Talk about Racism by Robin DiAngelo. Join us!
Note that in an effort to continue to do the work to confront racism in ourselves and society, we are committing to discussing one related resource each month along with our normal book club book.
Have questions? Send it to us at floralcouchconversations@gmail.com and we will discuss on a future episode. Our June book club book is Call Me by Your Name: A Novel by André Aciman.

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist
It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
