Hi, everyone! We are excited to announce that our Well-Read Black Girl book group is officially back! We meet on the fourth Wednesday of each month at 6:30pm (with the occasional change to avoid major holidays).
First, we would like to honor those who were with WCF's WRBG book group before the city shut down. (Thank you for hanging in there!!)
And in an attempt to prioritize community safety, all of WCF's book groups are currently meeting virtually. So, please email wcfBlackGirl@gmail.com to receive the Zoom link for our meetings (or if you have any questions!)
"Our goal is to introduce a cohort of diverse writers to future generations--contemporary authors who are non-binary, queer, trans, and disabled. To address inequalities and improve communities through reading and reflecting on the works of Black women." –Founder Glory Edim
We hold space for any person of color. We hold communities accountable for our safety and well being. We are forever pro black. Book group members receive 10% off the book group pick.
Facilitator: Staffer Raven Stubbs
