The Last Slavery Case in California; YA Author Sabaa Tahir's Gets Personal in 'All My Rage'

This week Sasha Khokha sits down with author Sabaa Tahir to talk about her latest young adult novel, All My Rage. The book is rooted in her own experiences growing up in her family's 18 room motel as the child of Pakistani immigrants and one of the few South Asians in her rural town. She's an award-winning author and her earlier series, Ember in the Ashes, which had a woman of color hero, hit number one on the New York Times bestseller list. And even though California joined the union as free state back in 1850, that didn’t mean slavery didn’t exist here. As gold rush prospectors flooded the state, enslaved Black people sometimes came too. And even Black people who entered the state free from bondage didn't always stay free. In fact, the passage of California's Fugitive Slave Act in 1852 allowed slave catchers to take free Black people back to slave states, and the law sanctioned the re-enslavement of Blacks freed by their enslavers. In 2020. reporter Asal Ehsanipour brought us the story about the very last slavery case in California -- a story that starts in what was once rural Sacramento. Learn more about your ad choices.
