Fresh out of nursing school, Civil Townsend intends to make a difference, especially in her African American community. At the Montgomery Family Planning Clinic, she hopes to help women shape their destinies, to make their own choices for their lives and bodies.But when her first week on the job takes her along a dusty country road to a worn-down one-room cabin, Civil is shocked to learn that her new patients, Erica and India, are childrenâjust eleven and thirteen years old. Neither of the Williams sisters has even kissed a boy, but they are poor and Black, and for those handling the familyâs welfare benefits, thatâs reason enough to have the girls on birth control. As Civil grapples with her role, she takes India, Erica, and their family into her heart. Until one day she arrives at their door to learn the unthinkable has happened, and nothing will ever be the same for any of them.Decades later, with her daughter grown and a long career in her wake, Dr. Civil Townsend is ready to retire, to find her peace, and to leave the past behind.

This month we're reading:The Great DismalBy Bland Simpson"Just below the Tidewater area of Virginia, straddling the North CarolinaâVirginia line, lies the Great Dismal Swamp, one of Americaâs most mysterious wilderness areas. The swamp has long drawn adventurers, runaways, and romantics, and while many have tried to conquer it, none has succeeded. In this engaging memoir, Bland Simpson, who grew up near the swamp in North Carolina, blends personal experience, travel narrative, oral history, and natural history to create an intriguing portrait of the Great Dismal Swamp and its people. For this edition, he has added an epilogue discussing developments in the region since 1990."Enjoy some good reads, meet people who share your interest, and learn more about the diverse narratives that weave through North Carolina's history and culture.

In war, she meetsâand becomes one ofâthe lucky, the brave, the broken, and the lost.But war is just the beginning for Frankie and her veteran friends.
