Wednesday, October 1, 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.

Join us for the October 2025 online book club on October 1 at 8pm with Mariah Blake, author of They Poisoned the World. The event is free, but it’s up to you to buy the book or borrow it from a friend or library.

“Riveting and horrifying . . . Blake’s deft chronicle of one of the greatest moral scandals of our time [is] a book that none of us can afford to miss.” — The Washington Post

They Poisoned the World: Life and Death in the Age of Forever Chemicals by journalist Mariah Blake is a landmark investigation of the chemical industry’s decades-long campaign to hide the dangers of forever chemicals, told through the story of a small town on the frontlines of an epic public health crisis.
