Faculty are encouraged to incorporate this year's book in class.
1Book/1 Project/2 Transform (1B/1P/2T) is a recurring series that brings together MSU Denver students, staff and faculty around a shared book, and when possible they volunteer with a service project related to the book's theme. The idea behind 1B/1P/2T is that we can all be transformed — and can, perhaps, transform others — by what we read and how we participate in our community.
This year's book is "In the Country We Love" by author/actress Diane Guerrero (who has had roles in "Orange is the New Black" and "Jane the Virgin").
"In the Country We Love" is a moving, heartbreaking story of one woman's extraordinary resilience in the face of the nightmarish struggles of undocumented residents in this country. Guerrero will speak on campus Oct. 25 from 11 a.m. to noon in the Tivoli Turnhalle.
