For this month's meeting, we will watch the documentary “Daughters” which is streaming on Netflix. This documentary is about four young girls as they prepare for a special Daddy Daughter Dance with their incarcerated fathers, as part of a unique fatherhood program in a Washington D.C. jail. The film made its debut at the 2024 Sundance Film Festival and took home two awards: Festival Favorite and Audience Choice: US Documentary Competition.
At this meeting, we will also select our next book. Some suggestions:- Fifteen Cents on the Dollar by Louise Story and Ebony Reed
- Ebony and Ivory by Craig Steven Wider
- The End of Race Politics: Argument for a Colorblind America by Coleman Hughes
The author of The End of Race Politics was interviewed on public radio. Interview transcript of Coleman Hughes
