The Kentucky Historical Society has a new book club designed to help you keep your 2022 reading resolutions on-task! Over the course of 10 months (February – November), we will be meeting virtually to discuss Slavery’s Descendants: Shared Legacies of Race & Reconciliation by Dionne Ford & Jill Strauss. The meetings for this title will take place via Zoom every 4th Saturday from 2-4pm EST. We may not fill the full 2 hours every month, but the sessions are FREE and designed to help us reflect on what we read, and how it relates to our research.
Pre-registration is required – but only once! Anyone who signs up will be sent the Zoom invitations monthly – so no need to re-register each month. Please click HERE to register, or click on the green “tickets” or “register” button above. **NOTE** In order to provide a safe space for open dialogue, these sessions will NOT be recorded.
