Thalia Book Club: James Baldwin: If Beale Street Could Talk, 50th Anniversary

Commemorating 100 years of James Baldwin, this thought provoking evening celebrates If Beale Street Could Talk in the year of its 50th anniversary. Admirers from the worlds of literature and theater, including Brit Bennett (The Vanishing Half), Teagle F. Bougere (Debate: Baldwin vs Buckley), Annette Gordon-Reed (On Juneteenth), Mychal Denzel Smith (Stakes Is High), and more, salute the author with an evening of reading and insightful conversation.

“One of the best books Baldwin has ever written—perhaps the best of all." —The Philadelphia Inquirer

There will not be a book signing at this event.
