Editor’s Note: The following was provided by the League of Women Voters Whitewater Area.

On Thursday evening, September 28, 6-8PM, at the Irvin L Young Memorial Library in Whitewater, the League of Women Voters Whitewater Area will host the first of 3 Book Club discussions on Sissy: A Coming-of-Gender Story by Jacob Tobia.  Sissy is a complex, moving and enlightening memoir written by a non gender conforming young man. Tobia inspires readers to open their minds and experience his fascinating journey of gender positivity.

Books are reserved at the Whitewater Public Library and the first discussion will cover the Introduction and Part I (read thru page 97).  You do not need to be a League member to attend this event!  The League welcomes all who are interested in deepening their understanding of this important topic. If you have any questions, please contact Dwight C. Watson at dwight.watsondcw@gmail.com or call 920-542-8601.
