Babes of Wrath Banned Book Tour : Authors Discuss Homelessness and Poverty.

Authors Discuss Homelessness & Poverty

 Sept. 15, 7-8:30 pm – FREE

East Side Neighborhood Services
1700 2nd St. NE, Minneapolis

My Very Own Bed and our partner East Side Neighborhood Services will present a talk by Diane Nilan and Pat LaMarche, authors of books about homelessness and housing insecurity, as part of their 10-state "Banned Book Tour." 

Known as "The Babes of Wrath," Nilan and LaMarche are two grassroots activists with decades of experience fighting homelessness and poverty on the front lines. Each have new, must-read books about children and adults experiencing homelessness. LaMarche also writes children’s books, including her Priscilla series, at least one of which was recently banned by her local library – thus the title of their tour.
