While President Trump attacked the press and behaved generally poorly during his press conference with UK Prime Minister Theresa May on Friday, President Obama quietly announced a trip to South Africa and Kenya. He also released his summer reading list. 。
"This week, I'm traveling to Africa for the first time since I left office -- a continent of wonderful diversity, thriving culture, and remarkable stories," he wrote in a Facebook post. "As I prepare for this trip, I wanted to share a list of books that I'd recommend for summer reading."。

Among them are Americanah by Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, which tells the story of Ifemelu, a young Nigerian woman who moves to the U.S. for college, and A Grain of Wheat by Ngugi wa Thiong'o, a novel set during the Mau Mau rebellion in 1950s Kenya.。
Thanks for signing up! 。

Obama, who, again, reads books, will visit Kenya and South Africa on his trip. In South Africa, he'll deliver a speech commemorating Nelson Mandela's 100th birthday at an event for the Obama Foundation. 。
