hi freedom reader!
about freedom readers
freedom readers is a nonfiction book club dedicated to political education exploring praxis, marginalized u.s history, arts & culture, and more! we read one book over the span of two months, totaling to six books in an entire calendar year. while you can read at whatever pace is comfortable, this cadence prioritizes slower reading to ensure more time to digest information and discuss.
where to find us
we’re currently on discord, substack, instagram, storygraph, and fable! while you can engage in any way you’d like, we highly recommend joining our discord and subscribing to the substack newsletter to get the most out of this book club.
