Becoming Louisiana Book Club

Created by the School of Humanities, “Becoming Louisiana” is a semester-long project that “explores marginalized identities through literature and local nonprofits.”

“I created a class—ENGL3009—where I wanted to focus on marginalized identities in Louisiana,” assistant English professor Jaleesa Harris, Ph.D., said. “I wanted the text to correlate to specific identities.”

Another “Becoming Louisiana” meeting will be held for the fall semester, covering “Settling St. Malo” by Randy Gonzales. He will be present during the discussion.
