This week, we are sharing four episodes from The Stacks, a podcast from Oakland’s own Traci Thomas. Traci sits down with some of the buzziest authors in the biz and digs deep into their writing and their lives.
This episode: Traci chats with anthropologist Jason De León about the distinctions between human smuggling and trafficking, and the ethical complexities of ethnography. His recent book, Soldiers and Kings, won the 2024 National Book Award for Nonfiction.
