Our Mission:

To study and discuss politics and

books covering politics

We meet every three weeks to discuss current events and politics from 6:30 PM to 8:15, and from 8:15 to 9:00 we discuss one book. Discussion notes with readings will be provided beforehand as well as a Study Guide and Book Reviews for our book.

Here is a schedule of upcoming meetings and books we have selected:

12/23 Shadow Network, by Anne Nelson

1/13 A Promised Land, by Barack Obama

2/3 Caste, The Origins of Our Discontents, by Isabel Wilkerson

2/24 Unworthy Republic: The Dispossession of Native Americans & the Road to Indian Territory”, by Claudio Saunt

3/17 Book is still to be determined

4/7 Book is still to be determined

These are some more books we have read.

We are now in our 5th year!

A Typical Political Book Club Meeting

Before each meeting you will be sent an email with a document attached with thought-provoking questions and readings to stimulate our discussion. A study guide and a few book reviews will also be provided for enriching our book discussion.

The current events and political issues are discussed for the first 75-90 minutes followed by a 45-60 minute discussion about our book.

If you aren’t able to read the questions and the suggested readings or the book, YOU ARE STILL WELCOME.
