On Monday, July 29 from 1:00 to 3:00 pm, 1623 Studios will be hosting a taped facilitated dialogue among five community leaders as they discuss race equity in Gloucester inspired by the community-wide book club selection, How the Word Is Passed: A Reckoning with the History of Slavery Across America by Clint Smith.  

For those interested, there is space for a limited audience to observe the taping.  Please note that the audience will only be observing the discussion; they will not have the chance to participate or to appear as a part of the taped program.  Registration is required. Space is limited.

The panel, facilitated by Gloucester Racial Justice Co-Chair Michea McCaffrey and Dawn Pratson, of the Gloucester Reads team will include:

Jenny Benedict, Director, Sawyer Free Library
Bob Gillis, Tri-Chair, Gloucester 400+
Karen Ristuben, President, Cape Ann Chamber of Commerce
Ben Lummis, Superintendent of Schools
Peggy Hegarty-Stack, Director, Action, Inc.

Gloucester Reads 2024 is a citywide, intergenerational summer reading initiative. Running through August, this community-wide book club aims to spark conversations, inspire new ideas, and encourage introspection about race equity in our community. Co sponsored by the Sawyer Free Library, Gloucester’s Racial Justice Team and Gloucester Health Department, in collaboration with sixteen additional community partners, the summer reading initiative will explore books reflecting Black experiences in America.

We have an endless supply of backyard visitors in Magnolia including 2 deer. We’ve been hoping to see fawns this year but that hasn’t happened yet. These two were making a feast of the brush AND the neighbor’s garden.
