      Pasadena’s new “Meaningful Conversations Book Club” will be reading Caste: The Origins of Our Discontents written by Isabel Wilkerson.

      By News Desk

      Caste is a powerful and thought-provoking book that challenges readers to confront the reality of caste in America. Wilkerson’s writing is engaging and accessible, making complex ideas and historical events easy to understand. This book is a must-read for anyone interested in understanding the social and political dynamics of American society.

      This book club will meet once a month on Tuesday evenings to focus on literature that inspires conversations about our neighborhoods, community life, and personal relationships. Books are chosen to motivate members to take action and create positive change in their communities. Through discussions, explore how these books relate to our experiences and the world around us, fostering connection, empathy, and shared responsibility.

      Facilitated by the Baha’is of Pasadena.

      To join, RSVP to MCbookclubpas@gmail.com.

      Billionaires, hedge fund owners and local imposters have a powerful hold on the information that reaches the public. Colorado Boulevard stands to serve the public interest – not profit motives.

      While fairness guides everything we do, we know there is a right and a wrong position in the fight against racism and climate crisis while supporting reproductive rights and social justice. We provide a fresh perspective on local politics – one so often missing from so-called ‘local’ journalism.
