Book Discussion: Between the World and Me

1:00 PM - 2:15 PM
Elmhurst Public Library
Administration Conference Room

Event Details

Join us to discuss the book voted as our One Book, One Community selection, Between the World and Me by Ta-Nehisi Coates. In this profound work, the author offers a powerful new framework for understanding our nation’s history and current crisis. The idea of race in America damages us all but falls most heavily on the bodies of black women and men--exploited through slavery, segregation, imprisonment, and murder. What is it like to inhabit a black body and find a way to live within it? How can we all honestly reckon with this fraught history and free ourselves from its burden?
