Greetings from Nicole Anderson Cobb, PhD, Convener, Freedom Readers Book Club of Champaign-Urbana!

I have launched this book club FOR ADULTS, PARENTS AND YOUTH CAREGIVERS to gather to read once a month in community.

We will read one (1) book this year:

The 1619 Project—a 624 page book—
is filled with a lot of information to consider and discuss.

Therefore, my goal is to carefully consider each chapter’s contents each month.
