The first virtual meeting is set for July 7.

The Stroum Jewish Community Center (SJCC) has announced a new book club focused on race and allyship.

The club is open to anyone, and is free. Meetings will be held over Zoom on the four dates from 7-8:15 p.m to “talk about the book, our experiences and how race impacts our and others’ day-to-day lives,” according to the SJCC website.

Participants are not required but are encouraged to make a donation of either $18 or $36 to the SJCC. Those interested have until July 6 to register.
