Event Details
Join us to discuss a few thought-provoking titles about the interconnected relationship we have with our shared home, planet Earth. This group will span the months of February, March, and April leading up to the globally recognized Earth Day on April 22. We will discuss one work of nonfiction, and two climate fiction, aka “cli-fi” titles. Join us for as many sessions you’d like!
Our February title is We Are Each Other’s Harvest: Celebrating African American Farmers, Land, and Legacy. In this impressive anthology, Natalie Baszile brings together essays, poems, photographs, quotes, conversations, and first-person stories to examine black people's connection to the American land from Emancipation to today.
Here are the selections for each month:
- February Title (non-fiction) - We Are Each Other’s Harvest: Celebrating African American Farmers, Land, and Legacy by Natalie Baszile; et. al.
- March Title (science fiction/cli-fi) - Ministry for the Future by Kim Stanley Robinson
- April Title (eco fiction/cli-fi) - Overstory by Richard Powers
Please note: Print copies of each title are available at the Library's circulation desk one month in advance of each discussion. We Are Each Other's Harvest is also available as an eAudiobook through Hoopla.
