The Pauli Murray Center's February 2022 book club discussion will be on Parable of the Sower by Octavia E. Butler. The conversation will be facilitated with author and educator Nicole Givens Kurtz!

When global climate change and economic crises lead to social chaos in the early 2020s, California becomes full of dangers, from pervasive water shortage to masses of vagabonds who will do anything to live to see another day. Fifteen-year-old Lauren Olamina lives inside a gated community with her preacher father, family, and neighbors, sheltered from the surrounding anarchy.
