Virtual: YAAA, ANY, & WWN Book Club Discussion - The Truths We Hold: An American Journey

Join the Yale African American Affinity Group, Asian Network at Yale, and Working Women’s Network for a book club discussion on The Truths We Hold: An American Journey by Vice President Kamala Harris, one of America’s most inspiring political leaders. The Truths We Hold is about the core truths that unite us, and the long struggle to discern what those truths are and how best to act upon them, in Kamala’s own life and across the life of our country. Register by Friday, April 23 for a chance to win a free copy of the book!

By reckoning with the big challenges we face together, drawing on the hard-won wisdom and insight from her own career and the work of those who have most inspired her, Kamala Harris offers in The Truths We Hold a master class in problem solving, in crisis management, and leadership in challenging times. Through the arc of her own life, on into the great work of our day, she communicates a vision of shared struggle, shared purpose, and shared values. In a book rich in many home truths, not least is that a relatively small number of people work very hard to convince a great many of us that we have less in common than we actually do, but it falls to us to look past them and get on with the good work of living our common truth. When we do, our shared effort will continue to sustain us and this great nation, now and in the years to come.
