Woke & Well-Read Book Club - “Baracoon" by Zora Neale Hurston

Woke & Well-Read is a new book club starting this fall, facilitated by Jamila Latham. The group meets the 3rd Tuesday and Wednesday of each month, from 7 – 8:30 pm.

Our June book is Baracoon by Zora Neale Hurston

Woke & Well-Read will look at life through the eyes of African American authors. We will explore some of the legendary greats (that some of us are ashamed we have not read yet), as well as contemporary favorites and writers who are up-and-coming.

Read more about the club or email Jamila with questions.
