Our Community  Book Discussion is scheduled for Wednesday, April 10, at 6:30 pm at the Brighton Public Library.

Book selected for discussion:
The Beast: Riding the Rails and Dodging Narcos on the
Migrant Trail by Oscar Martinez

The League of Women Voters Book Club is dedicated to reading and discussing works of nonfiction pertinent to the pressing issues of our day.  Topics we explore include race, class, gender, debt, work, the environment, politics, technology and media, imperialism, post-colonialism, activism, culture, and aesthetics. 

We want you to become more informed, engaged, and connected to both each other and society at large.  We want this Book Club to be a safe space to discuss complex topics.

Please be mindful of the following:

• Please respect other’s opinions: all opinions are welcome.  You can disagree with someone, but always do so respectfully.  Ask questions.  Avoid personal attacks.  And keep an open mind.
• Don’t interrupt or dominate the discussion.
  
• Please allow everyone to participate; we want to hear your opinion, and everyone else’s.
  
• Please refrain from disclosing your political party affiliation; this is a nonpartisan discussion group.
