About this Event

Books for Thought will introduce the local community to literary themes and scholars that engage them in critical thought, encourage the examination of race in our society, and motivate them to continue learning.


Join us as we welcome Hannibal B. Johnson to the History Center to present his book, "10 Ways We Can Advance Social Justice Without Destroying Each Other." His newest release which examines how we can and should see ourselves in others. The act of empathy can help us understand that our shared humanity eclipses all else. Through our disagreements, we must never doubt the dignity and worth of the other.


The schedule of events will include a keynote from our author, moderated audience Q&A, and a book signing. All attendees will have an opportunity to purchase a book before and during the signing. Museum members will get exclusive perks to this event, be sure to sign up for membership by clicking HERE to stay in the loop and build a relationship with us!

We hope you'll join us for this powerful pilot event that will help all of us contribute to a more just world during an incredibly divisive time.
