~BACK IN ACTION~
Actually Curious Book Club
What Is This? In June 2020, in an effort to learn and deepen my knowledge of race and race issues in the United States, I decided to do more reading on the topic. When a colleague expressed interest in doing the same, we teamed up and decided to co-facilitate a discussion. A (Zoom) book club was born.
What Book Is Next? The 1619 Project
What Books Have You Already Read? Michelle Alexander’s The New Jim Crow; How to Be an Antiracist by Ibram X. Kendi; Between the World and Me by Ta-Nehisi Coates; James Baldwin’s Notes of a Native Son; I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings by Maya Angelou; You Can’t Touch My Hair by Phoebe Robinson; Caste by Isabel Wilkerson.
What If I Missed Earlier Meetings? It doesn’t matter. We welcome more voices and points of view.
