Join us for our monthly book club where we will be discussing our latest read. This month, we're discussing chapter 4 of "The Message" by Ta Nehisi Coates. This is a book about words, writing and storytelling.
About The Message:
A timely book about his journeys to three sites of conflict - Dakar, South Carolina, and Palestine - exploring how the stories we tell, and the ones we don’t, shape our realities.
Ta-Nehisi Coates originally set out to write a book about writing, but soon found himself grappling with deeper questions about the destructive myths that shape our world.
