Reading Race: Community Conversations

Monday, January 21

6:00 pm - 7:30 pm

Location: Village Center Meeting Rooms

Join us on Dr Martin Luther King Jr Day to engage with your neighbors in crucial conversations about race and racism, in the final community conversations studying the book We Were Eight Years in Power by Ta-Nehisi Coates.

This month, we will discuss Chapter 8, "My President was Black," a version of which was published in The Atlantic in January 2017. You can find it online here: https://www.theatlantic.com/magazine/archive/2017/01/my-president-was-black/508793/

Reading Race is a collaboration between Shorewood Public Library, the Shorewood School District and the YWCA of Southeast Wisconsin.
