Riverton Readers Book Discussion: The 1619 Project

This casual book discussion is open to all. Stop by Riverton Library any time before the event to check out your copy of the book. This month’s selection is The 1619 Project edited by Nicole Hannah-Jones.

The 1619 Project was intended to introduce Black people into the mainstream narrative of American history as active agents. It may have been White people who enslaved them, but apart from the legal and constitutional paperwork, it was Black people who resisted and liberated themselves and others, from their very first arrival at Jamestown, Virginia, in 1619 to the very present. Hannah-Jones and colleagues consider a nation still wrestling with the outcomes of slavery, an incomplete Reconstruction, and a subsequent history of Jim Crow laws and current legal efforts to disenfranchise Black voters.

The book discussion will be on Wednesday 2/7 from 6:30 pm to 7:30pm.

Please note: This meeting we will be reading through chapter 9.
