The 1619 Project: Community Conversations: CITIZENSHIP

Join us on Sunday, February 22 at 2:00PM Eastern for our 8th installment of The 1619 Project: Community Conversations: CITIZENSHIP.

There are many grievances regarding the actions taken by the current administration—too many to list individually. Many of you view our bookstore as a safe space to express your concerns and fears. In response, we have been active listeners and have provided support in various forms.

To help galvanize our voices, we've launched Community Conversations, a monthly gathering to discuss the impact of current events. Using The 1619 Project as our guide, we will focus on the themes of each chapter to deepen our understanding of what is happening and how we can better equip ourselves during this challenging time. Where possible, we will have subject matter experts to lead the discussions, but we will also rely on each other’s insights.

We will begin with a poem read by Ashley Aguilera, followed by a discussion led by Diana Montano, multimedia journalist, editor, and community educator.

Please review the chapter in preparation for the discussion.
