Our book group, like so much else, has moved to Zoom. For January, we’re reading the The Warmth of Other Suns: The Epic Story of America's Great Migration by Isabel Wilkerson. From the publisher: In this epic, beautifully written masterwork, Pulitzer Prize–winning author Isabel Wilkerson chronicles one of the great untold stories of American history: the decades-long migration of black citizens who fled the South for northern and western cities, in search of a better life. From 1915 to 1970, this exodus of almost six million people changed the face of America.
