Tuesdays in Black August and beyond, we invite you to read along with us as we tackle and discuss Remaa Menakem’s now New York Times bestselling book My Grandmother’s Hands: Racialized Trauma and the Pathway to Mending Our Hearts and Bodies.

This weekly discussion series will be facilitated by Lakaysha Lee-Hill

In preparation for our first meeting, we invite you to follow Resmaa Menakem’s free 5-session Racialized Trauma Course.

Download the audio book, digital book, or purchase your paperback copy via our store portal and either pick up The Box Jelly co-working space or opt for priority shipping.
