Magic City Books is thrilled to welcome Mary Annette Pember for a free, in-store event on Wednesday, May 7 to celebrate her new book, Medicine River: A Story of Survival and the Legacy of Indian Boarding Schools. This event will take place in the Algonquin Room at Magic City Books, 221 E. Archer Street in the Tulsa Arts District.

Medicine River is a sweeping and trenchant exploration of the history of Native American boarding schools in the U.S., and the legacy of abuse wrought by systemic attempts to use education as a tool through which to destroy Native culture. Mary Annette Pember will be in conversation with Brian Hosmer, Professor and Head of the OSU History Department.

Medicine River will be published by Pantheon Books on April 22, 2025 and available for sale at Magic City Books. You can purchase a copy online at: https://magiccitybooks.square.site/product/medicine-river-mary-annette-pember/3249
