It is somehow already time for me to start telling you about our JUNE BOOK CLUB PICKS. May 15 is the cut-off date to sign up. |

| BOOK CLUB Night of the Living Rez by Morgan Talty is a collection of twelve stories about what it means to be Penobscot in the 21st century and what it means to live, to survive, and to persevere after tragedy. |
|
| | POETRY CLUB In the spirit of magic, potions, and inventory, Refuse to Disappear by Tara Betts calls up the language of both science and witchery to call roll on Black women. |

The Well-Read Black Girl with Glory Edim podcast is the literary kickback you never knew you needed. Each week, Glory sits with authors like Tarana Burke, Min Jin Lee, Anita Hill, Nikole Hannah-Jones, Brit Bennett, Jacqueline Woodson and more for insightful conversation on art, culture, social justice, and the power of the written word. You’ll also meet Well-Read Black Girl community members, literacy advocates, and Black booksellers to hear what they’re reading and what it means to be well-read. Tune in, turn the page, and join the celebration. |
