The book we will be discussing: 'Medgar & Merlie: Medgar Evans and the Love Story that Awakened America' by Joy-Ann Reid.  

The host of MSNBC’s The ReidOut and New York Times bestselling author of The Man Who Sold America traces the extraordinary lives and legacy of civil rights icons Medgar and Myrlie Evers, situating Medgar Evers’s assassination as a catalyzing moment in American history.
In this groundbreaking and thrilling account of two heroes of the civil rights movement, Joy-Ann Reid uses Medgar and Myrlie’s relationship as a lens through which to explore the on-the-ground work that went into winning basic rights for Black Americans, and the repercussions that still resonate today. 

We will start talking about the other books you have read and then discuss the ‘assigned’ book.  Please let me know if you like to participate so I can send you the link to join.
