Time: 7:30-9:00 PM
Location: Pinch Bakery and Plant Shop, 183 Sherman Avenue N, Hamilton
Join Epic Books at Pinch Bakery & Plant Shop for a social-justice-oriented book club sponsored by Ward 3's Community Resilience Grant! Every month we read a nonfiction book on a different social issue and discuss what we've learned and how we can use it to implement positive grassroots change in our community. Come for the delicious free treats from Pinch (iykyk), stay for a great discussion of books and community!
May's book is On Wholeness by Quill Christie-Peters. Through reflections on childbirth, parenting, creative practice, and expansive responsibility, the Anishinaabe visual artist explores how reconnecting with the body can be an act of resistance and healing.
After a guided discussion of the book, we'll talk about how we can take what we've learned and use it to implement real, lasting change in our communities.
Books are available from the Hamilton Public Library, in e-book form online, or at both Epic Books locations, where they are 15% off all month. Subsidized copies are available to members who face financial barriers.
