Join Reparations Club at CAAM to celebrate the release of The Revelation of Dionne Daphne, the first novel by Mara Brock Akil, creator of Girlfriends, Being Mary Jane, Love Is, and Forever. Set in 1990s New York City, the story tracks a beauty editor whose seemingly ideal world is upended by shocking news from an ex-partner, compelling her to face long-hidden childhood trauma. Join Akil for a discussion of this debut book exploring the depths of love, transformative secrets, and the journey toward self-discovery, moderated by Elaine Welteroth.
