The 1619 Project Book Club Series: Inheritance & Justice

September 28, 2022 @ 5:00 pm - 6:00 pm PDT

The 1619 Project Book Club Series: Reparations Considered—Inheritance & Justice

Leon Beauchman (Class XX), Therapist, Artist & President of the SCC Alliance of Black Educators, will facilitate this virtual session.

Participants should read Chapter 11, “Inheritance” by Trymaine Lee, and Chapter 18, “Justice” by Nikole Hannah-Jones. Come ready to share your reflections, questions, and ideas about how the reading relates to our understanding of U.S. history and current issues.

These chapters provide supporting evidence to inform the California Reparations Plan, which will be considered in a session hosted by the California Reparations Task Force. The Task Force will issue final recommendations in 2023 and will undoubtedly cause controversy. See the California Reparations Report here.

 
About The 1619 Project Book Club Series
