APRIL BOOKCLUB
DPOP Bookclub
|
It's the one year anniversary of the DPOP Bookclub! Come celebrate with us for our April bookclub! All are welcome! We are reading Giving Up is Unforgivable: A Manual for Keeping a Democracy by Joyce Vance. Purchase the book here or Borrow the book from the Oak Park Public Library here. About the BookGiving Up Is Unforgivable is a clarion call to action, putting our current crisis in historical context and sketching out a vision for where we go next. Vance’s message is hopeful at its heart, even as it acknowledges the daunting challenges that lie ahead. She is the constitutional law professor you never knew you needed, explaining the legal context and the political history— and why the rule of the law still matters. At the same time, she empowers the reader to do something, both as individuals and collectively. |
