what is the danger of a single story?Welcome to the first book study in our Great Stories Book Club series! This series has been made possible by a grant from the American Library Association and is being taught in partnership with the Buena Vista Public Library. The theme of this book club series is empathy: what is it, and why is it important?
We're jumping into the series by reading All-American Boys, which addresses the issue of police brutality in our contemporary society. The book study will begin with a module, and then students will continue to read and complete work independently through Reading and Writing. We'll come back together a few times after this module to catch up, share reactions to the reading, and engage in a final discussion about the story, the concept of empathy... and the danger of a single story. |
