July NNLM Reading Club on Racism and Health: Black Maternal Health
Bring your book-discussion group into one of the central conversations impacting our nation as the NNLM Reading Club focuses on Racism and Health for its July reading selections, with special attention to Black maternal health. The context for these specific titles is maternal health in the Black community. We encourage you to use these books to start a conversation or keep an existing one going. All voices are not always heard in such conversations. We urge you to listen, think critically about what you can do to alleviate the effect racism has on health equity and act for social justice. Learn more about this month's reading selections at the NNLM Reading Club<https://nnlm.gov/all-of-us/nnlm-reading-club/racism-health/>.
