Seekers Book Club: "Between the World and Me"

On Thursday, May 15 at 6:30 p.m., ages 18 and older are invited to Seekers Book Club to discuss Between the World and Me by Ta-Nehisi Coates. The group meets at the Langston Centre (315 Elm Street, Johnson City) on the third Thursday of every month.

Registration is required; call the Langston Centre at (423) 434-5785 to register and learn more. Call Adult Services at (423) 434-4454 for help finding a copy of Between the World and Me by Ta-Nehisi Coates.

Between the World and Me is "a mix of lyrical personal narrative, reimagined history, essayistic argument, and reportage -- Coates provides readers a thrillingly illuminating new framework for understanding race: its history, our contemporary dilemma, and where we go from here" (Spiegel & Grau, 2015).

Seekers Book Club is a monthly book discussion group that reads classic and contemporary works by African American authors. The series is a partnership between Johnson City Public Library and the Langston Centre.
