Social Justice Book Group
Join us for our first Parent Social Justice Book Club meeting Thursday, February 17, 7:00-8:30 p.m. on Zoom! Don't forget to Register!
Our book will be Braiding Sweetgrass by Robin Wall Kimmerer and for this meeting we will be discussing the Preface and Chapter 1. We are intentionally keeping the reading short to make this group welcoming and accessible. We selected this book to complement the theme of CSW’s Social Justice Day on April 13: “Decolonizing History and Society." Kimmerer helps us understand a new way of viewing our relationship with the earth based on indigenous wisdom. You can read more about Braiding Sweetgrass here
At our first meeting we will decide how often to meet and what other materials we might read and view together. We'd also like to invite you to co-facilitate future meetings!
