Event Description: FLEX # 147
The Book in Common for 2021/2022 is the novel There There by Tommy Orange. The book is one of The New York Times 10 Best Books of the Year and winner of the PEN/Hemingway Award. Tommy Orange’s novel follows a dozen characters from Native communities who are traveling to the Big Oakland Powwow and are connected to one another in ways they may not realize. Their voices describe of the plight of the urban Native American—grappling with a complex and painful history, with an inheritance of beauty and spirituality, with communion and sacrifice and heroism. The focus of this workshop will be on ways the many ways students might engage with this year’s Book in Common.
