2026-03-25 19:00 - 20:30 | DPOP Office, 6941-A W. North Avenue, Oak Park, IL, 60302, United States
We are changing things up a little bit! We are going to read two articles from The New Yorker.
The Oak Park Public Library subscribes to The New Yorker, so you can read these articles for free through Libby with your Oak Park Library card.
We are reading One Direction: What MAGA can teach Democrats about organizing - and infighting by Charles Duhigg from the February 2, 2026 issue of The New Yorker.
We are also reading Listening to Joe Rogan by David Remnick in the February 16 & 23, 2026 issue.
While we disagree with several people mentioned in the articles, we are looking to learn more about why some people are drawn to certain groups. We hope you'll join us in this exploration.
You can find the February 2, 2026 article via the Oak Park Public Library and Libby here.

DPOP Bookclub: Giving Up Is Unforgivable by Joyce Vance

Borrow the book from the Oak Park Public Library here.
About the Book
Giving 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.
