Join our anti-fascist book club:

READ FOR DEMOCRACY

We read a new book every month, then take coordinated action to defend democracy ✊

Host your own book club in conjunction with our monthly live stream: Watch our 20 minute live-stream for a short discussion (we always invite the author but we can’t promise they’ll attend!) + suggested DEFEND DEMOCRACY action items, then discuss the book with your own crew at your home, coffee shop, or local library!

Plan your own local READ FOR DEMOCRACY book club:

  1. Schedule your event your favorite coffee shop, local library, church, community space, etc (we do not necessarily recommend inviting strangers to your home!)

  2. Download the flier template and add your own details, specifying location, time, zip code, etc of your event

  3. Invite people by posting it online, emailing your friends, starting a social media group, etc

  4. Livestream our 20 minute discussion from (livestream instructions will be on THIS PAGE!) then have your own discussion with your community, and take part in the action items we recommend ✊

    Email us for support organizing a grassroots READ FOR DEMOCRACY book club in your city or town: bookclub@handsoffcentraltx.org
