Beyond Every Wall

Click here to order.

The Bluest Eye

We will revisit the powerful "The Bluest Eye" by Toni Morrison. It is a book that speaks to all of us! Let's talk about the impact of the story on you and the relevance of the story then and now.

Beyond Every Wall

As described in Beyond Every Wall, how did Dr. Scantlebury break down the walls to become the first in her field? Let's list the walls she faced and hurdled over. What kinds of burdens are put on those with dreams that appear to transcend the 'norms' for minorities of African descent?

Movie Night on the Beach

What better movie to end a night on the beach than Amazing Grace. The unpolluted night sky with the sound of ocean waves and the voice of Aretha! Aretha inspires us, rocks us, and graces us her with her voice! Click for a preview.
