WHEN AFRICAN WOMEN READ
Join the book club
Membership is open to women of African descent that is women that identify as African, Black and/or Caribbean.
The book club meetings have a maximum of 18 participants per book club meeting. New members can join throughout the year and all members can read along with the book club. You can sign up for each book cycle on Eventbrite.
How we do it
Club members are notified in advance of book selection. Every member must have a digital copy, or paperback, or hardcopy of the selected book, purchased or borrowed and read prior to the meeting for that cycle. Time is allotted at each meeting for reflections and discussions. Participation is required by each member and members must agree to abide by the Book Club norms.

Isolation Kills Generations
“We live in the world…the whole world. Separating us, isolating us, that’s always been their weapon. Isolation kills generations.”
