Book Club at the Morris Center: "The Indigo Girl"
to
Morris Center for Lowcountry Heritage 10782 Jacob Smart Blvd. S, Ridgeland, South Carolina 29936
Join us for Book Club at the Morris Center. This Fall, we are reading and discussing Natasha Boyd's "The Indigo Girl." “The Indigo Girl” breathes new life into an absorbing true account of one of South Carolina’s pre-eminent historical figures. Eliza Lucas Pinckney’s empowering story of persistence and autonomy in defiance of societal and familial expectations makes for imperative reading at a time when disenfranchised voices are powerfully coming to the fore, invigorating new dialogues about the future of our democracy and unwilling to be silenced. We owe much to Natasha Boyd for this welcome opportunity to hear from Eliza once more." ~ Jonathan Haupt, Executive Director of The Pat Conroy Literary Center (writing for the Post & Courier, Charleston, March 2018)
