Belle Greene | Alexandra Lapierre

pick

I‘ve had this book on Kindle for months, way back when it was the last book for #EuropaCollective. Finally got around to it! A very interesting story about Belle Greene who became the chief librarian for J.P. Morgan in the early 1900s, all while passing as “white” even though her parents were descended from slaves. It‘s amazing how far we‘ve come from when having a single drop of black blood disqualified someone from so much.

Tamra I think about the Morgan family & Belle and the tragedy of her nephew not infrequently. 3w

BarbaraBB I‘ll bump it up my TBR. I‘ve got a copy for #EuropaCollective as well. We should bring that reading club to live again! 2w

Lesliereadsalot You have so much going on already! On one hand, I found every book we read from Europa to be interesting and valuable. On the other hand, I‘m not too good with having to be “responsible” for reading something. If you want to try to bring #EuropaCollective back to life together, I‘ll give it a shot. What do you think @BarbaraBB ??? 2w

Lesliereadsalot Yes, very sad and I can‘t stop thinking about it either. @Tamra 2w

BarbaraBB I‘d like that. We could check out if the former participants are interested and then maybe start again in the fall (after camp)? (edited) 2w

Tamra @BarbaraBB @Lesliereadsalot yes! I really enjoyed the Europa reads! 😁 2w

BarbaraBB @Tamra That‘s so good to know! We can revive it! 2w

Lesliereadsalot OK, I‘m in! Let‘s talk about it after camp. I‘ll work on getting the former participants list together over the summer. 🩷. @BarbaraBB 2w

BarbaraBB Great ❤️🧡🤍 2w

tpixie @BarbaraBB @Lesliereadsalot @Tamra I wrote a post last month or so about reading a #EuropaCollective in June. I better post it now so people can get the book! 📕 it‘s by the author of The Postcard- written with her sister- about another grandmother

A People's History of the United States | Howard Zinn

There is a "what radicalized you?" trend that hits social media every now and again. For me, it was just how I was raised. My #dad has always been my best history teacher and my political role model. The tagged book is among many he introduced me to. I couldn't find a good recent picture, so here's some of my favorite throwbacks.
