Fireside Readers Next Book Discussion - May 3rd

Fireside Readers Book Discussion Group

On May 3rd the book group will meet to discuss A Mighty Long Way: My Journey to Justice at Little Rock Central High by Carlotta Walls LaNeir. The book offers an insider's account of the nation's most famous school integration and recounts how the author made the decision to attend Arkansas's all-white Central High because of geographical practicality rather than a sense of heroism. The author describes the subsequent events and how they affected her family's beliefs about dedication, perseverance, and sacrifice.

The group meets at 7 p.m. in the Community Room. As always, new members and guests are always welcome. Join us, even if you haven’t finished the book! Light refreshments will be served.
