50 BIPOC Book Clubs to Join or Start in Your Community

If you're interested in starting or joining a book club centered on BIPOC literature, here are a few things you might want to consider:

Purpose: Clearly articulate the purpose of your book club, and make sure that it aligns with the values and goals of the group. For example, is the main focus of the book club to celebrate and support BIPOC authors, or is it more broadly focused on social justice and equity?
Structure: Decide on the format and structure of your book club. Will it be an in-person or online group? How often will you meet? Who will facilitate the discussions?
Selection: Choose books that align with the purpose and goals of your book club. Consider selecting a mix of fiction and non-fiction, and try to include a range of voices and perspectives. You might also want to consider choosing books by lesser-known or emerging authors in addition to more established writers.
Participation: Encourage and foster a welcoming and inclusive atmosphere in your book club. Make sure that all members feel comfortable sharing their thoughts and opinions, and consider implementing ground rules or guidelines to ensure that discussions remain respectful and constructive.

I hope this helps as you start or join a BIPOC book club! If you have any other questions, feel free to ask.
