    Literature to Life: If Beale Street Could Talk

    Girls Write Now Office 247 W 37th Street #1000, New York, NY, United States

    Literature to Life in partnership with Girls Write Now presents If Beale Street Could Talk.

    A story that remains disturbingly poignant sixty years after it was first published, James Baldwin’s If Beale Street Could Talk is about abiding love in the face of injustice. Told from the perspective of its young heroine, this is the story of one family’s fight for justice in a society where institutional discrimination has the power to destroy lives, a theme that resonates today with audiences from all walks of life.
