[NFBofSC] DIVERSITY INK BOOK CLUB

[Steve Cook]

NFBF Diversity Ink Book Club

•             On behalf of the Diversity and Inclusion Committee you are invited to the Diversity Ink Book Club. 

•             Join hosts Wendy Grandison and Tashara Cooper on Zoom the first and last Wednesday of each month beginning November 3, 2021. 

•             Dive into the best and most celebrated books from your favorite authors between 7:00-8:00 PM. 

•             Genres include fiction, non-fiction, biography, history and fantasy. 

•             Read ethnically diverse authors confronting culturally diverse subject matters. 

 

Diversity Ink is a fun and provocative platform that analyzes and discusses books that are reflective of black society in America and abroad. We explore cultural norms, attitudes, and behaviours that are thought to be indicative of Blackness. 

We hope to start a dialogue that challenges, inspires, and creates a sense of camaraderie within our Black community and other minorities who love and live the stories compelling ethnic literature.

Assist us in choosing the first handful of novels we will be reading this Fall, by submitting your interest in becoming a member of the Club along with your top three favorite ethnic authors of all time or your top three favorite ethnic must read books of all time, and why you love them.

You can live the life you want; blindness is not what holds you back.

 

The National Federation of the Blind knows that blindness is not the characteristic that defines you or your future. Every day we raise the expectations of blind people, because low expectations create obstacles between blind people and our dreams.
