SUMMARY:NC Reads Book Discussion: Poster Girls
DESCRIPTION:North Carolina Reads is North Carolina Humanities’ award-winning\, statewide book club! North Carolina Reads annually features five books that explore issues of racial\, social\, and gender equity and the history and culture of North Carolina. All featured books pose critical questions about how North Carolinians view their personal roles in helping to promote and form a more just and inclusive society.  Learn more about the book selections here. \nPoster Girls by Meredith Ritchie\nAfter an unwanted southern migration\, an upside-down world in 1943 offers military wife and mother\, Maggie Slone\, a job at Charlotte’s largest wartime employer––the massive and dangerous Shell Assembly Plant. Meanwhile\, military wife and Alabama native\, Kora Bell’s steadfast determination enables her to navigate the challenges she faces as a Black woman seeking employment under Jim Crow. A shared love of literature spurs an unlikely friendship between Kora and Maggie\, and the two work together to unify the plant’s workforce. \nRegistration is required to join our discussion of Poster Girls.  To register and join the conversation on September 3 at 6:00 pm\, click here. \nWatch NC Humanities’ recorded book event with author Meredith Ritchie and Dr. Sarah Patterson in a conversation moderated by Laura Demski Williams.
