On Tuesday, December 15, MTN Twin Cities members met via video for our annual book share. As always, this popular MTN event garnered plenty of fascinating titles to expand your reading (and listening) list. This year, as part of MTN’s commitment to exploring the impacts of white supremacy on all aspects of life in the US, books focusing on race and racism are featured, as well as those focused solely on death. Happy reading!
