The Black Feminist Book Club brings together community members to read, discuss, and take action inspired by Black feminist texts. Gwendolyn VanSant hosts the next iteration of the book club in MASS MoCA’s Research & Development Store. Participants will explore the selected text together, view special exhibitions and community spaces related to the books, and be introduced to organizations that continue the work of historical Black feminists.
