Join author and skater Mandy Shunnarah for the launch of Midwest Shreds: Skating Through America's Heartland, out from Belt Publishing on July 16th, 2024. The book covers the history of skating in the Midwest, which is part cultural history, part travelogue, and part memoir.
There will be a reading by the author with a Q&A afterward.

Where: Two Dollar Radio Headquarters at 1124 Parsons Ave, Columbus, OH 43206
Guess what! I’m not the only one with a skate book coming out.
Collective Chaos: A Roller Derby Team Memoir by Samantha Tucker and Amy Spears is hot off the press from Ohio University Press. The book launch is at Two Dollar Radio Headquarters and I’m moderating the Q&A!
Come see us at 1124 Parsons Ave. Columbus, OH 43206 on Tuesday, April 11th, at 8pm. There’ll be tasty vegan food, yummy drinks, and a good time had by all because Sam is a comedian on top of being a talented writer and skater.
This is an online event, so you don’t even have to leave your house!
Hear me read some poetry about being a Palestinian living in diaspora and tell the story of my family immigrating from Ramallah in the West Bank to Birmingham, Alabama. We’ll cover forced assimilation, generational trauma, Arabs and race, and all kinds of fun stuff because I like to make you laugh while telling you the world sucks. :)
It’s a free event sponsored by Jewish Voice for Peace - Central Ohio chapter. Register here for the Zoom link and click here to add this to your Facebook events calendar.
