About this event

For 2024, we have chosen one book/article to read and discuss at each quarter. Attendees are strongly encouraged to read the selection so that they can more fully participate in our discussion--but we encourage those who didn’t finish the selection to come out and join us as well!

June 13: Master of Play by Nick Paumgarten
Sept 12: Decolonizing Design: A Cultural Justice Guidebook by Elizabeth Dori Tunstall
December 5: Ghost Work: How to Stop Silicon Valley from Building a New Global Underclass by Mary L Gray

For more details about all the selections and related Culture of Health & Tech talks and workshops, check out our website here. Support our local bookshop Reparations Club, a beautifully curated Black-women owned bookshop in Jefferson Park, by buying your books through them directly (the Dec book is available thru them) or through our Culture of Health & Tech Bookshop.org store.
