Zakiya Dalila Harris was working as an editorial assistant at a New
York publisher when she ran into another Black woman for the first
time on her office floor. That's when she got the idea for her
book, The Other Black Girl. What's it like when you're used to
being the only one, but now there's another one like you? And what
if things get weird? Like, really weird. Sam and Zakiya talk about
how her book subverts the office drama and what lessons it has for
a still very white publishing industry.
