Book club tackles tensions of gentrification
Thursday, April 1, 2021 by Tai Moses
Trinity University Press’ Maverick Book Club, which meets monthly to talk about “the books that are shaping the narrative landscape of the state,” will be gathering on Zoom to discuss Fault Lines: Portraits of East Austin with photographer John Langmore, activist Bertha Rendón Delgado, historian Harrison Eppright, and reporter Michael King. Fault Lines “features more than 100 color and black-and-white photographs of Austin, Texas taken between 2006 and 2010, during which time Langmore was fully aware that the window for capturing the East Austin community was rapidly closing.” April 7, 7 p.m. Register for the event at Trinity Press.
