Join us for a discussion of How to Say Babylon by Safiya Sinclair.

The title How to Say Babylon: a memoir is on hold at the White Oak Library and can be picked up any time the library is open. It is also available on Libby as an ebook and an eAudiobook.

Synopsis from Goodreads: How to Say Babylon is the stunning story of the author’s struggle to break free of her rigid Rastafarian upbringing, ruled by her father’s strict patriarchal views and repressive control of her childhood, to find her own voice as a woman and poet.
