Let’s celebrate the power of friendship and community!
About this Event

Come be part of a meaningful conversation at the Better Society Book Club, led by Lance, as we explore themes of friendship, solidarity, and social change through this month's featured title:
"Friends in Common: Radical Friendship and Everyday Solidarities" by Laura C. Forster and Joel White.

📖 This powerful and timely book offers a deep dive into how everyday acts of connection and solidarity can help build a better, more just world. It's a resource of hope and an invitation to reimagine what community means.

💬 "A beautiful and inspiring study of friendship... wide-ranging, original, and deeply insightful. We are in desperate need of such resources of hope."
—Diarmaid Kelliher, author of Making Cultures of Solidarity

🗓 Date: Saturday, November 8th
🕚 Time: 11:30 AM
📍 Location:
Whose Books
512 W. Davis St.

🤝 Hosted in partnership with The People's Institute for the Common Good and ARCO.

🎟 Free & Open to All! Whether you're new to social justice or a longtime community advocate, this book club offers space to reflect, connect, and grow.
