We welcome New York Times bestselling author, Denise Kiernan, author of The Last Castle and The Girls of Atomic City.  Her new book, We Gather Together, brings us a new way to look at American history through the story of giving thanks. Illuminating, wildly discussable, part myth-busting, part call to action, We Gather Together is full of unexpected delights and uneasy truths. The stories of indigenous peoples, immigrant communities, women's rights activists, abolitionists, and more, will inspire readers to rethink and reclaim what it means to give thanks in this day and age. The book's message of gratitude--especially when embraced during the hardest of times--makes it one to read and share, over and over, at any time of year.

For virtual attendees, the livestream program will begin at 10:40am
