Four months in the making: I interviewed Ishmael Reed, making Collidescope history with the longest interview to date. Only Patreon supporters will have access to the uncut interview which includes almost 2,000 more words of literal and metaphorical juicy material that won’t be published elsewhere.

I talk with Mr. Reed about the meaning of Mumbo Jumbo in the age of COVID-19, restrictions placed on Black writers, how Americans create their own mythology, Pynchon’s name-drop of Reed in Gravity’s Rainbow, Ishmael Reed’s publishing efforts, and a whole lot more!
