ADVANCED REGISTRATION RECOMMENDED

James Baldwin, revolutionary artist and freedom fighter, turns 100 in 2024. Celebrating his legacy, we will read his works throughout the year, to study and learn from his ideas on race, empire and love for our times, and for the great contribution they make towards the revolutionary remaking of both the American people, as well as world humanity. This reading group is a part of the Year of James Baldwin in Philly, a citywide celebration of Baldwin's birth centennial through reading campaigns, film screenings, and symposia.

This reading group will meet at 2pm every two weeks on Sundays starting on March 10th.
