You are invited to join Luther’s fifth annual All-Community ABIDE Book Club! This year we will be reading and discussing “I Never Thought of It That Way: How to Have Fearless Conversations in Dangerously Divided Times” by Mónica Guzmán. The all-community read is a great way for all of us—new and current students, staff, faculty, and alums—to connect and learn as we continue our work to promote and embody our ABIDE values: accountability, belonging, inclusion, diversity, and equity. Book clubs will be offered at a variety of times in-person and on Zoom and will meet for six weeks beginning the week of July 21. Sign up online by July 16 to participate. Students can receive a free copy of the book—sign up to learn more. Contact Lauren Mildahl (lmildahl001) with any questions.
