One Book, One Swarthmore promotes literacy and community dialogue by encouraging Swarthmoreans to come together through reading and discussing a single book. We are living in unusual times and need to connect with our community now more than ever.
Swarthmore community members are invited to submit their vote for the final selection in the first virtual One Book, One Swarthmore community reading program. Virtual events will be held between May 1 and May 15. The theme for this year’s program is “Coming Together While We Are Apart.” We are living in unusual times and need to connect with our community now more than ever.
The votes have been tallied, and Swarthmoreans have chosen three books for various levels of readers for the inaugural year of “One Book, One Swarthmore.” A week-long festival of events beginning June 7 will celebrate unity, involving readers of all ages in activities promoting conversation about the books and their relation to the theme of this year’s program, “I, Too, Am America” (inspired by the Langston Hughes poem, I, Too).
