This Zoom has been shared with us by the Ashland Library; please note that it is virtual only, and does not take place in the library. Click here to register, and you will receive the Zoom link  (and the recording later). Graham will delve into the primary sources - the manuscripts and letters - that informed his  book "The Invention of Charlotte Brontë: A New Life". Join us, once again, as Graham discusses Charlotte's life - the myths vs. reality - as well as his own research and writing of this fantastic book! If you missed the first session, you can find it on our YouTube Channel (if you'd like a little homework before Take Two :). About the book: ""A ground-breaking biography that uncovers the truth behind the myths to reveal the Brontës as they've never been seen before. As the beloved author of Jane Eyre, Charlotte Brontë is one of the most radical talents of the 19th century. And one of the most mysterious. Her early death left her friends and the public demanding answers. Tasked with telling the story of her tragic life, fellow writer Elizabeth Gaskell investigated, uncovering secrets of family discord, illicit love, and professional rivalries more incredible than any fiction. Determined to deliver not only justice, but revenge on Brontë's behalf, Gaskell slandered those who'd mistreated her in a book so controversial it was banned within weeks - but not before it had given birth to the romantic myth of the Brontës. Ever since, historians have argued about how much of it is true. Here, for the first time ever, is the full story. Based entirely on first-hand accounts and rarely seen private letters, this riveting biography debunks the myths to shed new light on dramatic events of Brontë's last years of grief, fulfilment, and tragedy - uncovering the shocking media scandal that followed her death, as her friends and family battled to control how history would remember her" -- Publisher's description from dust jacket. https://falmouthpubliclibrary.assabetinteractive.com/calendar/zoom-author-talk-virtual-the-invention-of-charlotte-bront-with-author-graham-watson/

We are excited to welcome for the very first time to the Falmouth Public Library, Dr. Marion Orr on Tuesday, November 4th at 6:30 pm, for a reading, talk and book signing! Dr. Orr will be discussing his newest book House of Diggs. Eight Cousins Books will be selling books at the event. Please register below to attend! House of Diggs: The Rise and Fall of America's Most Consequential Black Congressman, Charles C. Diggs Jr. At the height of the civil rights movement, Charles C. Diggs Jr. (1922–1998) was the consummate power broker. In a political career spanning 1951 to 1980, Diggs, Michigan’s first Black member of Congress, was the only federal official to attend the trial of Emmett Till’s killers, worked behind the scenes with Martin Luther King Jr., and founded the Congressional Black Caucus. He was also the chief architect of legislation that restored home rule to Washington, DC, and almost single-handedly ignited the American anti-apartheid movement in the 1960s. Drawing on extensive archival research, including Diggs’s rarely seen personal papers, FBI documents, and original interviews with family members and political associates, political scientist Marion Orr reveals that Diggs practiced a politics of strategic moderation. Orr argues that this quiet approach was more effective than the militant race politics practiced by Adam Clayton Powell and more appealing than the conservative Chicago-style approach of William Dawson—two of Diggs’s better-known Black contemporaries. Vividly written and deeply researched, House of Diggs is the first biography of Congressman Charles C. Diggs Jr., one of the most consequential Black federal legislators in US history. Congressman Diggs was a legislative lion whose unfortunate downfall punctuated his distinguished career and pushed him and his historic accomplishments out of sight. Now, for the first time, House of Diggs restores him to his much-deserved place in the history of American politics. Marion Orr is a political scientist and the inaugural Frederick Lippitt Professor of Public Policy at Brown University. An award-winning author, his work includes Black Social Capital: The Politics of School Reform in Baltimore. He was awarded the Biographers International Organization’s Francis “Frank” Rollin Fellowship for his work on Congressman Diggs. https://falmouthpubliclibrary.assabetinteractive.com/calendar/author-event-dr-marion-orr/

You’re invited to learn from journalist and author Joseph Lee as he chats online with us about his stirring memoir, Nothing More of This Land: Community, Power, and the Search for Indigenous Identity. In it, he explores Indigenous identity in proximity to land that serves as an iconic vacationing spot for the wealthy–the “island paradise” Martha’s Vineyard. Growing up Aquinnah Wampanoag, Joseph Lee grappled with what it means to be an Indigenous person in the world today, especially as tribal land, culture, and community face new threats. Starting with the story of his own tribe, which is from the iconic Martha’s Vineyard, Lee tackles key questions around Indigenous identity and the stubborn legacy of colonialism. Lee weaves his own story—and that of his family—with conversations with Indigenous leaders, artists, and scholars from around the world about everything from culture and language to climate change and the politics of belonging. As he unpacks the meaning of Indigenous identity, Lee grants us a new understanding of our nation and what a better community might look like. About the Author: Joseph Lee is an Aquinnah Wampanoag writer based in New York City. He has an MFA from Columbia University and teaches creative writing at Mercy University. His writing has been published in The Guardian, BuzzFeed, Vox, High Country News, and more. He was a Margins Fellow at the Asian American Writers Workshop and a Senior Indigenous Affairs Fellow at Grist.
