(OLLI AT UVM PRESENTS) Forbidden Pages: Banned Books Club - Homegoing with Rebecca Starks

In this online Banned Books Club, we will read and discuss the 2017 award-winning historical fiction novel Homegoing by Ghanaian-American author Yaa Gyasi. A panoramic portrait of the slave trade and its reverberations, the novel follows the descendants of one Ghanaian woman across multiple families over three centuries in both Ghana and the United States. We will discuss the reasons given for banning, any discomfort the books cause in us, and the value we might find in that discomfort. New participants are welcome. Limited seats.
