Reading Race: Community Conversations
Thursday, July 12
6:00 pm
Location: Village Center Meeting Rooms
Engage with your neighbors in crucial conversations about race and racism, in a series of community conversations studying the book We Were Eight Years in Power by Ta-Nehisi Coates.
Discussions are held every other month, and each discussion will consider an essay or two from the book. The complete schedule can be found here.
This month, we will discuss Chapter 5, "Fear of a Black President," a version of which was published in The Atlantic in September 2012. You can find it online here: https://www.theatlantic.com/magazine/archive/2012/09/fear-of-a-black-president/309064/
Reading Race is a collaboration between Shorewood Public Library, the Shorewood School District and the YWCA of Southeast Wisconsin.
