Your Next Summer Read ....
|
|
|
|
In partnership with alumnae/i volunteers, Alumnae/i Relations and Development continues to collect resources and readings to guide our pursuit of positive change. As part of this work, we have launched a collective alumnae/i summer reading initiative that will culminate in an open and purposeful alumnae/i conversation in the fall about the advancement of antiracism at Bryn Mawr and beyond. The alumnae/i committee has selected My Broken Language by Quiara Alegria Hudes as its inaugural book. Purchase your copy today online at the Bryn Mawr College Bookshop and stay tuned for more details throughout the summer. For e-book and audio book options, visit Penguin Random House. |
