Required Reading: Texts for Change Book Club (Online)
Date: 08/12/25Time: 7:00pm - 8:30pm
Branch: Online Branch
Age group: Adults
Program type: Race, Equity & Inclusion
Description:
Required Reading: Texts for Change is the new quarterly book club of the HCLS Equity Resource Center & Collection. Join other equity-minded colleagues and community members who are curious, committed, and ready to keep growing. Together, we’ll engage with powerful texts—books that challenge assumptions, introduce new frameworks, and offer fresh ways of thinking about equity in our work and in our community.
Why now? Because Howard County is a beautifully diverse community—with people of all backgrounds, experiences, and dreams. And like many places, we’re also navigating real disparities in access, opportunity, and belonging. This book club invites us to pause, reflect, and build our capacity to better serve, support, and show up for the people who call our county home.
We’ll read three nonfiction books throughout the year and one fiction title each summer—something a little lighter to make space for joy and imagination. Some of these texts may stretch us. That’s the point. Growth happens when we’re willing to sit with complexity and listen deeply—to authors, to each other, and to the communities we live in and serve.
This isn’t about having all the answers. It’s about reading with intention—and learning together in community.
