Based on the real-life story of her family, her narrative begins with a Great Migration-era arrival in suburban New Jersey and extends three generations into the 1980s. Among several honors, Coleman Hill was a finalist for the NAACP Image Award.

SERVICE SPOTLIGHT: We’ll be connecting toiletries and or warm clothing/coats at this meeting for Doors of Hope Community. Doors of Hope Community is a nonprofit organization dedicated to assisting women and their families with reentry after incarceration, as well as those who are struggling to make ends meet or need uplifting support during tough times. Many of these women and their families require essential items such as toiletries or warm clothing, including sweaters, socks, hats, gloves, scarves, and new or gently worn coats. MWC member Yvonne Garlin is leading a drive to collect these much needed items at our Feb. 13th program.
