For November, the Oak Lake Writers Society kicks off the first #NativeReads Virtual Book Club focusing on “Our History is the Future,” by Nick Estes.

Whether you have already read the book or want to re-read or read along with us over the course of the month, we will be utilizing Zoom to meet together each Saturday. Note: If you don’t think you can perfectly read along, but want to be part of the book club, we only ask that you be very respectful in participating. We want readers of all levels to feel welcome, while not getting off topic.

Register and get your free ticket to these online events at Eventbrite. The meeting information will be with your tickets.

Also, we will be utilizing the discussion guide from the #NativeReads campaign, too. Find that here.
