litworks' reading group

Literacy Works' reading group is a social justice, radical education, focused group. Each year, we will choose four books to read and will meet quarterly for our discussions. This reading group is informal in nature - you don't need to commit to the whole year to join us!


This reading group is open to members and nonmembers alike and admission is free to all.


Our group will focus on the pressing issues of our time - namely racism, sexism, classism, homophobia - and how they intersect with our lives and our work.


Each year, we will choose four books the fit the following categories:

- SUMMER a book that focuses on social action

- FALL a book that focuses on new ideas and theories in the nonprofit field

- WINTER a book about education and educational theories

- SPRING a fiction book.


Have a recommendation for a book? Let us know! Email Keighty at keighty@litworks.org


While Literacy Works' reading group is a space to discuss new ideas, ask questions, and engage in meaningful dialogue, this is an explicitly brave space. We will not tolerate racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia, xenophobia, or bigotry of any kind.
