United States
Focused on books that discuss our history in a journey towards the discovery of our ancestors.
The group will meet on Zoom on alternating months on the second Tuesday of the month.
This month's book: Dust Tracks on a Road by Zora Neale Hurston
First published in 1942 at the height of her popularity, Dust Tracks on a Road is Zora Neale Hurston's autobiography, an account of her rise from childhood poverty in the rural South to a prominent place among the leading artists and intellectuals of the Harlem Renaissance. Hurston's personal literary self-portrait offers a revealing, often audacious glimpse into the life -- public and private -- of an artist, anthropologist, chronicler, and champion of the black experience in America.
This program is in partnership with the San Francisco African American Historical and Cultural Society.
