Welcome to Dukes’ Book Club @DCLI!

Dear Book Club Members,

Starting on Wednesday, September 1, 2021, our DuqLawBookClub will meet weekly in the DCLI computer lab on the first floor, at 5 PM and discuss one chapter each week. If you cannot make it, we will provide you with a zoom link. But, wouldn’t you rather come to the library and have an in-person conversation with Professor Oliver and Professor Heppner, and myself? I am Dana Neacsu, the new DCLI director.

The book we will read this year is “Separate : The Story of Plessy V. Ferguson, and America’s Journey from Slavery to Segregation,” by Steve Luxenberg. We will read one chapter for 22 weeks – divided between the Fall and Spring semesters.

Please stop by the library and inquire about ways to access the book. Of course, you may also email at DCLI@duq.edu.

Each week, on Monday, ahead of our meetings, with help from your professors, I will make sure to post some thoughtful remarks or questions for all of us to ponder about while you read each chapter.

Enjoy the rest of summer!

Dana
