Book Club Run: Three Girls From Bronzeville

Join Read & Run Chicago and Black Girls Read Book Club on Saturday, February 4 at 10:00am for a 3-mile, easy-paced (11:00 min/mile) book club run through Bronzeville inspired by journalist Dawn Turner’s award-winning memoir, Three Girls From Bronzeville. The route is based on locations from Dawn’s childhood in Bronzeville detailed in the memoir. We’ll pass by her elementary school, apartment complex, and other notable sites and reflect on their importance in Turner’s coming of age.

Following the run, runners will meet up with Cynthia Okechukwu of Black Girls Read Book Club at Eméché Cakery & Cafe for a post-run guided discussion.

If you love this book and want to join the discussion without running, plan to arrive at Eméché at between 10:45am-11:00am for the post-run discussion portion of the event.
