Now that fall/winter is back and we seem to read more during these seasons. We will be going back to two group reads a month. Please nominate any memoir/nonfiction read from any genre.

Anastasia Kinderman | 942 comments Hmmmmm, Kisha would King Peggy: An American Secretary, Her Royal Destiny, and the Inspiring Story of How She Changed an African Village qualify? The subject fits but the author is Eleanor Herman so I'm not sure if that disqualifies the book.

It qualifies as long as it's a nonfiction or memoir book!

Joseph Young | 31 comments Maybe "The Autobiography of Miss Jane Pittman," there would be a lot to deal with in terms of the historic marginalization and silencing of black women.
