Featured Guest Speaker:<\/p>\n

Cassandra Jackson<\/p>\n

Author of “THE WRECK: A Daughter\u2019s Memoir of Becoming a Mother”<\/p>\n

In “THE WRECK” (Viking; May 16, 2023), Cassandra Jackson has crafted a profound, unforgettable work about recognizing the echoes of history within ourselves, and the necessity of turning inherited grief into political activism. As she unpacks her own struggles with infertility and her family\u2019s harrowing past, she finds a single common thread: the medical malpractice and neglect whose effects have caused needless loss and suffering in her family. Jackson\u2014co-author of The Toni Morrison Book Club and a writer and professor of English at the College of New Jersey\u2014uses these personal experiences to illuminate a much larger issue: how the medical field has historically failed Black Americans.<\/p>\n
