Stacey Abrams is the New York Times bestselling author of several books for children (Stacey’s Extraordinary Words, Stacey’s Remarkable Books) and adults (While Justice Sleeps, Our Time Is Now, Lead from the Outside). Abrams and PBS’s resident librarian and TikTok star Mychal Threets discuss the vital role libraries play in connecting people with information and to the community.

A tax attorney by training, Abrams served 11 years in the Georgia House, including seven as minority leader. She’s launched multiple organizations devoted to voting rights and tackling social issues at the state, national, and international levels.

Abrams works to break barriers for young people, people of color, and the marginalized through her work in the public, nonprofit, and corporate sectors. She holds degrees from Spelman College, the LBJ School of Public Affairs at the University of Texas, and Yale Law School.
