You might never learn this in DeSantis’ Florida, but we live in a country that’s kind of obsessed with human bondage. “Of Greed and Glory,” a new book from scholar, writer, and literary critic Dr. Deborah G. Plant (“Barracoon,” “ Zora Neale Hurston: A Biography of the Spirit”) is a personal exploration of liberty, the atrocities of the international slave trade and penal system, plus the steps we might take in achieving basic freedoms and sovereignty for all.

Plant and Gwendolyn Reese, President of the African American Heritage Association will discuss the work as part of a field trip Tombolo Books is taking to the ‘Burg’s wokest church.

There’s no cover for ‘Of Greed and Glory: An Evening with Dr. Deborah G. Plant’ on Friday, Jan. 19 at St. Pete’s Allendale United Methodist Church ( 3803 Haines Rd. N).
