This week we're discussing Chapter 14, "Of the Sorrow Songs" and "The Afterthought" of The Souls of Black Folk. We look forward to hearing your the passages you've selected to share and your insights from reading this section.
Educating ourselves about the history and impact of racism in our country and in our lives is a step toward justice-making. Leadership of the discussion is shared among members. In February 2026, the Anti-Racism Reading Group began a new book, The Souls of Black Folk, by W.E.B. DuBois. Compelling and written less than forty years after the Civil War, it offers insights into the lived experiences of Black people as they navigated a changing country. New members are welcome. For more information, contact Eva or Phyllis at antiracismbookgroup@ocuuc.org.
