PACG Book Club
We have decided to move PACG Book Club to 4:30 pm on the third Monday of the month (instead of 5:30 pm). We will meet in June but take off July and August. We have also decided to include books with social justice themes relating to women and LGBTQ+ people.
Our next discussion will be Monday, September 19th at 5:00 pm via Zoom. We are starting later for this particular meeting so that I (Alta) can participate. We will read and discuss The Cider House Rules by John Irving.
Read more about the book at this PACG Blog post.
For October we will read and discuss Kristin Henning's book The Rage of Innocence: How America Criminalizes Black Youth. We will have a joint discussion with Project Now's book club. It will be at the Moline Public Library on Monday, October 24th at 6:30 pm. More information will follow!
