Here's what we're reading this month What's Mine and Yours by Naima Coster
When a county initiative in the Piedmont of North Carolina forces the students at a mostly black public school on the east side to move across town to a nearly all-white high school on the west, the community rises in outrage. For two students, quiet and aloof Gee and headstrong Noelle, these divisions will extend far beyond their schooling. As their paths collide and overlap over the course of thirty years, their two seemingly disconnected families begin to form deeply knotted, messy ties that shape the trajectory of their lives.
If you need an accessibility accommodation during this program, please register early so we can confirm arrangements a few days before your visit.
Aldershot Branch, BPL’s first satellite location, opened on 29 September 1960. The branch relocated many times, most recently reopening on 01 December 2011 in a new facility shared with Halton Community Housing Corporation. It is the first BPL branch to open in a residential complex.
