This special event is presented as part of the One State/One Story program, which helps communities come together to talk about a shared story. One State/One Story: All That She Carried is presented by Indiana Humanities in partnership with the Indiana Center for the Book and the Indiana State Library as part of Indiana Humanities’ Advancing Racial Equity Project, supported by Lilly Endowment.
Hoosiers are invited to join in the statewide reads of All That She Carried: The Journey of Ashley’s Sack, a Black Family Keepsake by Tiya Miles as part of Indiana Humanities’ Advancing Racial Equity project, which supports discussions of history and memory and how engaging with our past can help us understand contemporary injustices and strive for racial equity. The Advancing Racial Equity Project aims to further conversations about the past, present, and future of racial justice and injustice in Indiana through engagement with the humanities. The project provides support for public-serving organizations to diversify circulating collections, resources for organizations to host conversations about racial equity and the experiences of Black Hoosiers, and learning opportunities for humanities professionals and community members to deepen their understanding of the progress and challenges on the journey to racial equity.
