David Holt, the mayor of Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, appears on the latest episode of Oprah Winfrey’s book club podcast.

Holt, a citizen of the Osage Nation, joined Winfrey to discuss Caste by author Isabel Wilkerson. He participated in the show virtually.

“This is still a little hard for me to believe, but I recently had the opportunity to visit with @Oprah about her latest Book Club selection,” Holt wrote in a post on social media.

The episode is available on Apple’s podcast service. The description says Holt will discuss “how the caste system has impacted his city.”

Holt, a Republican, is the first tribal citizen to hold Oklahoma City’s highest elected office.

This is still a little hard for me to believe, but I recently had the opportunity to visit with @Oprah about her latest Book Club selection – “Caste” by Isabel Wilkerson. You can now listen to my conversation with Oprah on Episode 8 of her “Caste” podcast series. pic.twitter.com/E5UUEUTcHR
