Let’s Talk About It: Firekeeper’s Daughter Book Discussion

September 14 @ 10:30 am - 12:00 pm

September 14 @ 10:30 am 12:00 pm

Join Let’s Talk About It, a book club for people who love to read and discuss great literature! Read Firekeeper’s Daughter and participate in discussion lead by Sunu Kodumthara. Firekeeper’s Daughter tells the story of an 18-year-old Ojibwe woman—a science geek and hockey star, as she grapples with two identities: that of her privileged, white mother and the Sugar Island Sault tribe of her late father.

This is part of a five-part series connecting book discussions with the Museum’s exhibition Cheyenne Ledger Art from Fort Marion. Books are provided and may be checked out at the Museum; contact gjeane@nationalcowboymuseum.org.
