Description
Join members of the Penn Yan Action Coalition in discussing the book chosen for this year's Community Read, THE LINE BECOMES A RIVER by Francisco Cantu. A New York Times bestseller and one of NPR's 2018 best books of the year, this memoir focuses on the crisis at our southern border through the eyes of a man who has served on both sides of the issue, first as a border patrol agent and later as an advocate. Cantu "speaks with urgency, honesty, and empathy about how the border wreaks violence on both sides of the line."
Whether you're an independent reader or a member of a book club that's chosen this title for your monthly selection, join us as a community to dig deeper into Cantu's important work.
