From Slavery to Freedom: Book Discussion

Up From Slavery - Booker T. Washington

12 Years a Slave - Solomon Northup

Incidents in the Life of a Slave Girl - Harriet Jacobs

We will be discussing these 3 books in light of their times and bringing the discussion forward into the present. We will contrast "modern day" slavery with issues of the past. The discussion will be led by Christine Omodi-Engola. 

Books are available at the JHPL and downloadable online at Libby
