Human Rights & Equity
Book Club
The HRE Book Club will be looking for recommended reads by Canadian authors who have had an impact on the HRE equity-seeking groups – Racialized members, members living with disabilities, Indigenous members, Francophone members, and 2SLGBTQI members. They also hope they can get an author or two to join the discussion!
An intimate memoir in essays by an award-winning Israeli writer who travels the world, from New York to India, searching for love, belonging, and an escape from grief following the death of her father when she was a young girl. This searching collection opens with the death of Ayelet Tsabari’s father when she was just nine years old. His passing left her feeling rootless, devastated, and driven to question her complex identity as an Israeli of Yemeni descent in a country that suppressed and devalued her ancestors’ traditions.
