Black History Month Reading Group
Black History Month Reading Group In-Person
As part of our Reading for Diversity series, the Library is teaming up with BookSoc to read and discuss Yaa Gyasi's debut novel 'Homegoing' in honour of Black History Month.
This book follows the descendents of two half-sisters, Effia and Esi, through eight generations, separated by the transatlantic slave trade. Set between the Americas and Ghana, "Homegoing" provides a unique insight into the long-term effects of slavery and colonisation.
All are welcome - no need to read the whole book!
The Library has provided digital and print copies of the book and it is also available to purchase from most major book retailers. Book Soc also has a limited number of print copies available.
The discussion group will be held in the Digital Commons on Level 1 of the Information Commons.
