Join the African-American Resource Center's diverse, 14-year strong Grapevine Literary Society book club to discuss "Call Your Daughter Home" by Deb Spera and "White Fragility" by Robin DiAngelo.
Call Your Daughter Home by Deb Spera- "It's 1924. Gertrude, a mother of four, must make a decision to save her daughters from starving or die at the hands of an abusive husband. Retta is a first-generation freed slave, still employed by the Coles family, plantation proprietors who once owned her family. Annie is the matriarch of the Coles family and faces the terrible truth that has ripped her family apart. These three women unite to stand up to the terrible injustices that have long plagued their southern town, and find strength in the universal bonds that tie women together."
White Fragility by Robin DiAngelo is an exploration of conscious and unconscious bias in an America still grappling with the consequences of slavery and systemic racism.
Enjoy an in-depth discussion of issues of diversity and inclusion in a welcome environment.
