The 1619 Project: Community Conversations: PUNISHMENT

Join us on Saturday, April 11 at 5:00PM Eastern for our 10th installment of The 1619 Project: Community Conversations.

There are many grievances regarding the actions taken by the current administration—too many to list individually. Many of you view our bookstore as a safe space to express your concerns and fears. In response, we have been active listeners and have provided support in various forms.

To help galvanize our voices, we've launched Community Conversations, a monthly gathering to discuss the impact of current events. Using The 1619 Project as our guide, we will focus on the themes of each chapter to deepen our understanding of what is happening and how we can better equip ourselves during this challenging time. Where possible, we will have subject matter experts to lead the discussions, but we will also rely on each other’s insights.

We will begin with a poem read by Kiden-Aloyse Smith, followed by a discussion led by Tasha M. Hunt, is the Director of Juvenile Probation Services for the State of Connecticut Judicial Branch Court Support Services Division, and serves as the Councilwoman-At-Large and Majority Whip for the Town of Hamden.

Please review the chapter in preparation for the discussion.
