Mount Holyoke’s 2016 Common Read is Between the World and Me by Ta-Nehisi Coates (Spiegel and Grau, 2015). On Wednesday, September 28, the club will hold a discussion of this important book from 6:30–8:30 p.m. at a West Hartford location.

In a letter to alumnae this summer, Acting President Sonya Stephens wrote, “In assigning Coates’s book, we will create and embrace the opportunity to come together in difficult conversation about structural racism and white privilege, and to envisage ways in which we can act — as individuals and as a college — to change systems, policies, politics and communities, from gun control to twenty-first century segregation.”

To RSVP email Carolyn Dorais at cedorais@comcast.net and she’ll send you the address for the discussion.
