Calling all book lovers! Our monthly book club continues this winter with titles that complement our ongoing exhibitions. In January, in conjunction with Timothy Washington: Citizen/Ship, we will read The Water Dancer, the first novel by acclaimed essayist Ta-Nehisi Coates. As part of our programming honoring Black History Month in February, and in conjunction with the exhibition Making Mammy: A Caricature of Black Womanhood, 1840–1940, we will discuss Hunger: A Memoir of (My) Body by leading cultural critic Roxane Gay. See the exhibitions beforehand and come ready to share your ideas.
