League Book Club Second Discussion on “An Eye for an I” – Newcomers welcome

The Justice, Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion Committee of the League of Women Voters Whitewater Area will hold the second of three Book Club discussions on our spring book selection, An Eye for an I: Growing Up with Blindness, Bigotry, and Family Mental Illness by James Bonilla, on Monday evening, March 9th, 6:15 PM-8:00 PM, at The Whitewater Public Library, 431 W Center St, in Whitewater.

This powerful narrative offers an intersectional analysis of disability, racism, and mental illness, inviting readers to empathize, be inspired, and consider their own potential for social change. Our discussion on March 9th will cover chapters 13-30. SAVE THE DATE – the last discussion will be held on April 13 (Chapters 31-42) at the same time
and location.
