SLCE Banned Book Club Reads...The Bluest Eye with the WLRC!

Join Student Leadership and Civic Engagement, Banned Book Club.

Join Student Leadership and Civic Engagement & UIC Women’s Leadership and Resource Center (WLRC) for a session of the Banned Book Club.

This months Book is The Bluest Eye.

"In Morrison’s acclaimed first novel, Pecola Breedlove—an 11-year-old Black girl in an America whose love for its blond, blue-eyed children can devastate all others—prays for her eyes to turn blue: so that she will be beautiful, so that people will look at her, so that her world will be different. This is the story of the nightmare at the heart of her yearning, and the tragedy of its fulfillment."

Copies will be provided during the session. The first 16 people who register will receive a free copy to take home!

Location: Student Center East, Commuter Resource Center Conference Room
