Wednesday, September 3, 8pm, this on-line event requires advance registration

On the first Wednesday of every month at 8pm (go ahead and mark your calendar), you can spend an hour asking your questions of the author of one of the most useful recent books for progressive activism.

We’ll post information about each upcoming book and author well ahead of time, to give you a chance to acquire and read the book beforehand. Just check teachinnetwork.org/bookclubs.

September: Black Bodies, White Gazes

Join us for the September 2025 online book club on September 3 at 8pm with George Yancy, author of Black Bodies, White Gazes: The Continuing Significance of Race in America. The event is free, but it’s up to you to buy the book or borrow it from a friend or a library.

“Black Bodies, White Gazes is academically rigorous, elegantly written, and theoretically sophisticated, and Yancy is to be commended for this examination of discursive practices of whiteness in everyday life.” [MELUS: Multi-Ethnic Literature of the U.S.]

The book offers clear history and recent headlines, including coverage of police murders and brutality against Black Americans and the rise of white nationalism.
