description: Read & Run Chicago's October Book Club Run is inspired by the poetry of Chicago legend, Gwendolyn Brooks--and our post-run discussion is FREE and open to all! Brooks—known as one of most widely read 20th century poets and the first Black poet to win the Pulitzer Prize—captured the everyday lives of Black Chicagoans and commented on injustices. Join us and Black Girls Read Book Club on ✨Sunday, October 19✨ for a free post-run discussion open to all. 📚As always, Read & Run Chicago’s Book Club Runs pair the miles with the pages—this event connects to Selected Poems (grab a copy from your local library, fave indie bookstore, or our Bookshop.org link below.) We'll communicate day of reminders in the chat below. RSVP to access!
