Poetry Book Club: An American Sunrise
May 6 @ 6:30 pm – 7:30 pm
Our poetry selection for April is An American Sunrise by Joy Harjo. If you haven’t already, please complete the form and be sure to purchase your copy at Scholar & Scribe to read beforehand…and get 10% off when you do!
In this stunning collection, Joy Harjo finds blessings in the abundance of her homeland and confronts the site where the Mvskoke people, including her own ancestors, were forcibly displaced. From her memory of her mother’s death, to her beginnings in the Native rights movement, to the fresh road with her beloved, Harjo’s personal life intertwines with tribal histories to create a space for renewed beginnings.
This is a great opportunity to share your thoughts and connect with fellow book lovers. We look forward to seeing you there!
