The Stowe Prize for Literary Activism

  • Immanuel Congregational Church, UCC 10 Woodland Street Hartford, CT, 06105 United States (map)

With great excitement, the Stowe Center announces Dr. Bettina L. Love as our 2024 Stowe Prize for Literary Activism winner, author of Punished for Dreaming: How School Reform Harms Black Children and How We Heal (St. Martin’s Press, 2023), which offers a road map for repair, arguing for reparations with transformation for all children at its core.

In the tradition of Michelle Alexander, an unflinching reckoning with the impact of 40 years of racist public school policy on generations of Black lives.
