In anticipation of our One Book, One Town event, Garnes will offer a talk on the immense contributions of African Americans to American literature. Authors as varied as Frederick Douglass, Zora Neale Hurston, James Baldwin, Toni Morrison, Ralph Ellison, Alice Walker and many others have given eloquent voice to the Black experience. We will review these and other writers as well as note movements such as the Harlem Renaissance that helped raise consciousness regarding the accomplishments of African Americans.
