Our group is excited to kick off a new initiative where we alternate between thoughtful discussions of social justice-themed books and meaningful activism inspired by their topics. Every other month, we’ll meet to discuss a selected book that highlights pressing social issues, followed by brainstorming and planning concrete actions we can take to make a difference. To start, we’ll gather to discuss Americanized: Rebel Without a Green Card, an insightful and heartfelt memoir that explores the challenges faced by immigrants in America. After our discussion of the book, we’ll shift our focus to identifying ways our group can actively support immigrant communities and advocate for their rights. Together, we aim to combine learning with action to drive meaningful change. Meeting info: Saturday January 25, 2025 @ 11:00-12:00 in the Carl Sagan Conference Room in the Savage Branch HoCo Library Questions?
