Peer Book Club 2026

The Peer Book Club emerged from a desire for more opportunities to engage with literature about peer support, mutual aid, and social movements. We aim to foster a relaxed environment for discussion, with a focus on literature that is accessible and relevant to a wide range of audiences. No pressure to show up every time, on time, or have the reading done in advance!

Our next book will be Let This Radicalize You: Organizing and the Revolution of Reciprocal Care (2023), by Kelly Hayes and Mariame Kaba.

We will meet every two weeks over Zoom to discuss the book, on Mondays from 6:00-8:00pm (Eastern Time). Our first meeting will be on October 5th. You can view the full reading schedule and chapter summaries here.

• A peer supporter, peer worker, community worker, or lived experience worker

• An activist, social justice, or cultural worker
• Engaged in work related to peerness, mutual aid, or community care
