Evergreen Brick Works presents a summer evening reading on the trails in Don Valley Brick Works Park, featuring writers Erica N. Cardwell, Phillip Dwight Morgan and Jacqueline L. Scott. Centred on narratives of memory, migration and belonging from the Black diaspora, the authors will read from new and recent works in the ravine that surrounds Roots (2021–2022), a large-scale, outdoor photographic installation by Toronto-based artist Sandra Brewster. Situated at the back of the Brick Works site, Brewster’s images document the area’s plant life and explore the long history of Black presence in the urban wilderness.
