Mt. Abe juniors Anna and Abby are back with us for May. (FYI -- We're rescheduling our April date to give everyone a bit more time to get the book and sign up.) Please join us to talk about An American Sunrise by Joy Harjo via Zoom Sunday, May 23 from 4-5pm.

It's a small volume of poetry -- pick it up, read some of it, and join us for a discussion of what we find. We'd love to have you! Google Books says, "A nationally best-selling volume of wise, powerful poetry from the first Native American Poet Laureate of the United States. In this stunning collection, Joy Harjo finds blessings in the abundance of her homeland and confronts the site where the Mvskoke people, including her own ancestors, were forcibly displaced. From her memory of her mother's death, to her beginnings in the Native rights movement, to the fresh road with her beloved, Harjo's personal life intertwines with tribal histories to create a space for renewed beginnings."
