tour book

I’m hitting the road to support the launch of We Have Never Been Woke, published October 8, 2024 by Princeton University Press.

A list of confirmed tour dates follows below, with links for all stops that have online announcements. If no link is present, but you’re interested in attending one of the listed events, shoot me a line for details.

Beyond the scheduled events, I’m open to doing media, podcasts interviews or meetups while I’m in town as well. Reach out to the books publicist, Megan Posco (megan@poscopublicity.com), to help arrange that.

If logistics and funding permit, I am open to extending trips to add additional events in any location I’m currently scheduled to visit — or, if that isn’t possible, I’m happy to swing back through for another visit downstream.

If you want to hear me talk about the book, but you live somewhere I’m not currently scheduled to appear at all — let’s get something on the books! I’m open to a wide range of possibilities: big high profile events, small private gatherings; on campus or off; big cities, small towns, and everything between.

If you’d like to schedule an appearance, reach out to my booking agent Akhil Jonnalagadda (Akhil_Jonnalagadda@press.princeton.edu) ASAP. My goal is to reach as many constituencies as possible in as many places as I can. Here’s where I’m slated to appear up to now:

Coming Soon: Dates in the UK and Canada

Due to high demand and logistical fortune, the release date for the UK has been moved forward by two months, now launching on November 19, 2024 (preorder now)! The Canadian release date is the same as the U.S. — October 8!

I am currently targeting early December 2024 for a UK tour supporting the launch. If you would like to schedule an event with me while I’m in the UK, please reach out to my booking agent, Akhil Jonnalagadda (Akhil_Jonnalagadda@press.princeton.edu) at your earliest convenience. I would be eager to nail down stops in Canada as well — in December or January, and into 2025. Hit me up!

If you are a UK or Canada-based journalist, editor, or academic interested in reviewing the book, interviewing me about the book, running an excerpt, or having me write an original essay, please reach out to the book’s publicist, Megan Posco (megan@poscopublicity.com), as soon as possible.

2025

Tucson, AZ

  • February 13: University of Arizona

Worldwide Tour

For folks outside the US, UK, Canada, Australia and New Zealand: I would be thrilled to make an appearance wherever you happen to be as well, logistics and funding permitting. And I’m perfectly willing to do interviews, etc. with journalists around the world too.

To explore the range of the possible, please reach out to my booking agent or publicist when you can, and let’s try to make stuff happen!

May 2025: Australia + New Zealand

I’m pleased to announce that my team and I are in the process of planning a tour of Australia and New Zealand in May 2025. Initial dates to be listed soon.

Folks interested in booking me while I’m in the neighborhood should email my agent, Akhil, to get the ball rolling from now (Akhil_Jonnalagadda@press.princeton.edu).

Journalists, editors and academics seeking interviews, excerpts, review copies, or original essays should reach out to the book’s publicist, Megan Posco (megan@poscopublicity.com) to start nailing those down.
