Community Discussion for Social Change

The Fox River Valley Public Library District is hosting a community discussion at the Dundee Library on the first Wednesday of each month, continuing the dialogue started with our three-part series focusing on the 1619 Project. This is an open and supportive space to discuss important social issues with respect and compassion. Each session will focus on an article, book, podcast, or other media, to initiate dialogue on a specific topic. We engage with these issues to raise our social consciousness; to exchange ideas, understandings, and experiences. Refreshments will be served. Registration is encouraged, but not required.

Our March discussion will focus on the book Punishment Without Crime: How Our Massive Misdemeanor System Traps the Innocent and Makes America More Unequal by Alexandra Natapoff. Check out a copy of the book at the Information Desk.
