Each semester, as a collective community, we will be reading and discussing a book that focuses on the broad topic of “race and the American story.” We will engage in a moderated online discussion of the book–its themes, concepts, and approach–on this website. For the Spring semester 2020, we will be reading Most Blessed of the Patriarchs: Thomas Jefferson and the Empire of the Imagination by Annette Gordon-Reed and Peter S. Onuf. The Race and the American Story Book Club discussion board will be open and available to our students as well as to the wider community so that we can engage widely and learn from each other.
