The Blackest Book Club Book

Reconstruction, Campaign, and Pod Save the People have come together again to create 'The Blackest Book Club' reading list as a meaningful celebration of Black History Month.

This year's theme, Imagine a Brighter Future, calls us to harness the power of literature as a revolutionary act - to dream boldly, resist injustice, and craft a new world rooted in equity, hope, and joy.

In a time of immense political and societal challenges, we turn to books as tools for liberation and imagination. Through reading, we find not only answers but also the courage and creativity to design better lives for ourselves, our communities, and future generations.

Featuring a curated collection of titles from multiple genres that have inspired us to imagine new possibilities and reimagine what a just and joyful future could look like.
