MT Racial Equity Project's Book Club

Tuesday, March 22: Join us online to discuss  America on Fire  by Elizabeth Hinton

What began in spring 2020 as local protests in response to the killing of George Floyd by Minneapolis police quickly exploded into a massive nationwide movement. Millions of mostly young people defiantly flooded into the nation's streets, demanding an end to police brutality and to the broader, systemic repression of Black people and other people of color. To many observers, the protests appeared to be without precedent in their scale and persistence. Yet, as the acclaimed historian Elizabeth Hinton demonstrates in America on Fire, the events of 2020 had clear precursors-and any attempt to understand our current crisis requires a reckoning with the recent past.

This Club reads mostly nonfiction about social justice and issues affecting people of color and minorities.  They usually meet the fourth Tuesday of every month (except December).
