SUMMARY:The 1619 Project
DESCRIPTION:Join us for Tuesday Night Book Club! Hosted by Monmouth University’s Ken Womack. This month’s novel is The 1619 Project. \nA dramatic expansion of a groundbreaking work of journalism\, The 1619 Project: A New American Origin Story offers a profoundly revealing vision of the American past and present. \nThe New York Times Magazine‘s award-winning “1619 Project” issue reframed our understanding of American history by placing slavery and its continuing legacy at the center of our national narrative. This new book substantially expands on that work\, weaving together eighteen essays that explore the legacy of slavery in present-day America with thirty-six poems and works of fiction that illuminate key moments of oppression\, struggle\, and resistance. The essays show how the inheritance of 1619 reaches into every part of contemporary American society\, from politics\, music\, diet\, traffic\, and citizenship to capitalism\, religion\, and our democracy itself. \nWhen you register you will be provided the meeting link to join the conversation.

SUMMARY:Akhil Sharma - Visiting Writer
DESCRIPTION:Sharma is a highly decorated short-story writer and novelist; he’s been awarded many of the most prestigious prizes and recognitions that a fiction writer can receive. His first novel\, An Obedient Father (Farrar\, Straus & Giroux\, 2000)\, hailed in New York Magazine by Jonathan Franzen as “A great novel” and described by Hilary Mantel in the New York Review of Books as “uncompromising\,” with a “first chapter . . . [that] blasts off the locks and splinters the wood\,” received the PEN/Hemingway Award for Debut Novel and was chosen as a New York Times Notable Book of the Year. \nSharma’s second novel\, the spectacular Family Life (Norton\, 2014)\, received both the International Dublin Literary Award and the Folio Prize. Scholar and writer Edmund White called it “a terse\, devastating account of growing up as a brilliant outsider in American culture” and described it as “a near perfect novel.” \nSharma’s third and most recent book\, the story collection A Life of Adventure and Delight (Norton\, 2017)\, prompted writer Yiyun Li to describe Sharma as “truly the Chekhov of our time.” His stories have been widely published and anthologized\, appearing in The New Yorker\, The Atlantic\, Best American Short Stories\, and O. Henry Award Stories.  \nIndeed\, Sharma is such an exacting and rigorous writer that\, quite unusually\, he recently published a revised and rewritten edition of An Obedient Father (McNally Editions\, 2022) more than twenty years after it first appeared in print. The critic Wyatt Mason\, reviewing the revised version in The New York Times Magazine\, described this as “Something white-rhino rare in the history of literature”\, adding\, approvingly\, “there is scarcely a paragraph that hasn’t been improved . . . ” \nBorn in Delhi\, India\, Sharma grew up in Edison\, NJ. Before becoming a professor at Duke\, where he now teaches\, he was on the faculty at Rutgers. He is an engaging and surprising speaker and an excellent reader of his work \nThis event is sponsored by The Visiting Writers Series\, with the Center for the Arts and the Intercultural Center.

SUMMARY:5th Annual MLK Distinguished Lecture in Social Justice featuring Anthony Abraham Jack\, Ph.D.
DESCRIPTION:Elite colleges are accepting diverse and disadvantaged students more than ever before—but to Anthony Jack\, access does not equal acceptance. An assistant professor at Harvard and author of The Privileged Poor\, Jack—once a low-income\, first-generation college student himself—studies how poor students are often failed by the top schools that admit them. In talks\, he details how class divides on campus create barriers to academic success—and shares what schools can do to truly level the playing field.  \nThis program is presented annually by the President’s Advisory Council for Diversity and Inclusion and will be moderated by Professor Claude Taylor.
