Join us as we discuss the book "Homegoing" by international bestseller and award-winning author Yaa Gyasi

Join us as we discuss the book Homegoing by international bestseller and award-winning author Yaa Gyasi. Homegoing follows the parallel paths of these sisters and their descendants through eight generations: from the Gold Coast to the plantations of Mississippi, from the American Civil War to Jazz Age Harlem.

A limited number of copies of the book will be available at the Check Out Desk, beginning in February.

This program is a part of NEA Big Read with Sandy Spring Museum.

NEA Big Read is a program of the National Endowment for the Arts in partnership with Arts Midwest.
