Book Club: Take My Hand

March 19 @ 1:00 pm - 2:00 pm

Join adult learners and other readers as we read and discuss the powerful book “Take My Hand” by Dolen Perkins-Valdez. The story explores the life of Civil Townsend, a Black nurse in 1970’s Alabama, who exposes a grave injustice suffered by her young patients. The Book Club is led by compassionate volunteers in a safe and supportive environment. You can join in person or online.  Contact Abbey at (269) 382-0490 ext. 219 if you’re interested!

This class is part of the community read-along, being led by Kalamazoo Public Library, in advance of the author’s visit to Kalamazoo on April 11.
