We’re being intentional about the stories we consume.

We strive to create a space where diverse writers feel seen, heard, and valued in our community. Every month, our team selects a book from an author that’s shifting the literary landscape, and we use their stories as a means of self-reflection and communal preservation.

How Book Club Works:

Discover Diverse Authors

Each month, dive into a story from a diverse author that’s reshaping literature.

Join the Conversation

While reading, engage with us on social to talk about the parts of the book that resonate with you the most.

Meet IRL

Monthly in-person meet-ups allow us to build community in real life through conversations that dig a little deeper.
