Dr. Conseula Francis Reading Circle Book Discussion of "The Davenports"

Dr. Conseula Francis Reading Circle Book Discussion of "The Davenports" Online

Join us via Zoom as we celebrate "Love at Avery," with the book discussion of The Davenports. 

"The Davenports are one of the few Black families of immense wealth and status in a changing United States, their fortune made through the entrepreneurship of William Davenport, a formerly enslaved man who founded the Davenport Carriage Company years ago. Now it's 1910, and the Davenports live surrounded by servants, crystal chandeliers, and endless parties, finding their way and finding love—even where they’re not supposed to...

Inspired by the real-life story of the Patterson family, The Davenports is the tale of four determined and passionate young Black women discovering the courage to steer their own path in life—and love."
