Coates sat down with New York Times Magazine and ProPublica reporter Nikole Hannah-Jones at New York's Schomburg Center for Research in Black Culture last year. You can watch the full interview at the top of the post. During the course of the hour-long talk, Coates mentioned the books below, in the hopes, he says, that "folks who read" Between the World and Me "will read this book, and then go read a ton of other books."
