SUMMARY:John Turner at The NewSouth Bookstore October 8 at 5:30pm!
DESCRIPTION:John Turner\, a journalist by training\, has a long relationship with the Appalachian Trail\, which includes being a Trail Ambassador and member of the Georgia Appalachian Trail Club board of directors. But it’s his walking of the trail that is the subject of his beguiling book\, which follows his personal journey on its pathways in search of inner peace. Killing the Buddha on the Appalachian Trail is the chronicle of what it taught him about life\, about aging and learning from one’s mistakes. Come meet him and hear his remarkable yet very human story on Tuesday\, October 8 at 5:30pm.

SUMMARY:Tuesday\, September 17 at 5:30pm at The NewSouth Bookstore: Jim Morris\, author of The Cancer Factory
DESCRIPTION:Environmental journalist Jim Morris joins us for a talk about his highly praised new book\, The Cancer Factory. The story concerns a group of Goodyear Tire and Rubber workers who were exposed to toxic chemicals\, the lawyer who sought justice on their behalf\, and the shameful lack of protection our society affords all workers. With four decades of reporting behind him\, the author offers an authoritative and chilling account that is also a clarion call for change. We are fortunate to host Jim Morris at The NewSouth Bookstore for a talk and signing on Tuesday\, September 17 at 5:30pm. Hope you can join us.

SUMMARY:BRITTANY HOWARD & JASON ISBELL: IN CONVERSATION
DESCRIPTION:Part of the 2024 Alabama Colloquium series\, this event features an in-depth conversation between Grammy-winning musicians and songwriters Brittany Howard and Jason Isbell. The duo will be recognized as Alabama Humanities Fellows for how they use the humanities — and their Alabama roots — to lift others up and bring us together. Their powerful storytelling challenges us all to think\, to empathize\, and to explore what it means to be human. Howard and Isbell will be presented their awards by Patterson Hood\, another legendary north Alabama musician and songwriter. \nThis event is a benefit for the Alabama Humanities Alliance\, a nonprofit and nonpartisan organization that provides public programming and grant opportunities statewide. For 50 years\, storytelling has remained at the heart of AHA’s mission. When we share — and listen — to each other’s stories\, what we’re really doing is getting to know each other better. We’re linking the past to the present. And we’re discovering the common ground\, and the common humanity\, that binds us all.
