About this Event
ReadingWell, ArtWell’s community program for reading and discussion, has selected “Imagination: a Manifesto” by Ruha Benjamin to read throughout the 2024-25 school year. Ruha Benjamin, Princeton University Professor, presents imagination as a vital resource and powerful tool for collective liberation. This book is her proclamation that we have the power to use our imaginations to challenge systems of oppression and to create a world where everyone can thrive.
