Big Library Read!

Ecorse Public Library issued the following announcement on Mar 31.

Starting Monday, April 4th, join fellow Ecorse Public Library card holders for the Big Library Read! 

This title for this Big Library Read is Music Is History, which focuses on the years 1971 to the present as Questlove finds the hidden connections in the American “tapes- try”, whether investigating how the blaxploitation era reshaped Black identity or considering the way disco took an assembly-line approach to Black genius. These critical inquiries are complemented by his own memories as a music fan, and the way his appetite for pop culture taught him about America. A history of the last half-century and an intimate conversation with one of music's most influential and original voices, Music Is History is a singular look at contemporary America.

To participate in the Big Library Read, get your virtual library card here;  https://ecorse.lib.mi.us/virtual-cards/
