About the Event

Our 400 Years of Racism reading & discussion series returns for a third year in  2023, featuring a collection of fiction and poetry, curated by Folio librarian Lillian Dabney. 

In March we will discuss The Wedding. Within this inner circle of blue-vein society, we witness the prominent Coles family gather for the wedding of the loveliest daughter, Shelby, who could have chosen from a whole area of eligible men of the right colors and the right professions. Instead, she has fallen in love with and is about to be married to Meade Wyler, a white jazz musician from New York. 

A shock wave breaks over the Oval as its longtime members grapple with the changing face of its community.

With elegant, luminous prose, Dorothy West crowns her literary career by illustrating one family's struggle to break the shackles of race and class.
