Bellarmine Magazine Podcast: The Pineapple

Chris Mattingly is teaching a course this semester in his fourth year at Bellarmine University that has students giving the class great reviews even before finishing it. The class is titled, Streets of Grit in American Lit and one of five assigned books is If Beale Street Could Talk by author James Baldwin. Baldwin goes deep and explores many of the societal ills and wills of the day and Professor Mattingly manages to get students to examine the topics in the book while making a deeper connection with the subject matter.
