Join us for our first album group listening party of the school year! this week we are diving into The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill, an iconic album that explores the themes of love and identity.

Though TMoLH is celebrating its 25th anniversary this year, its themes and appeal are timeless and still culturally resonant.

We recommend listening to the full album before the album group to encourage richer conversations.
