[close] 🌿 Roots and Reads Book Club 🌍 “Deeply rooted in culture, community, and conversation - wherever you are in the world.” Welcome to Roots and Reads, a book club for Black women living in Costa Rica and across the diaspora. We gather around powerful stories written by Black authors, from fiction to memoir, poetry to politics, that reflect our histories, celebrate our identities, and inspire our futures. Here, we read not just for knowledge, but for connection, to ourselves, each other, and the roots that ground us. Whether you’re curled up by the Caribbean or sipping coffee in the Central Valley, you’ll find a vibrant sisterhood of readers ready to dive deep, discuss freely, and grow together. 📚 Bi-Monthly reads 🗓️ Virtual and in-person discussions 🖤 Centering Black voices and lived experiences Join us as we root ourselves in literature and lift each other through the power of words.

[close] Hey everyone, We are a digital community of people (you + us) interested in discovering and immersing in Black authored speculative works. Our goal is to broaden the imaginations and expressions of identities and cultures, especially those of African descent. As such, we are so glad to have you on this journey with us. We exist to push for the representation of narratives that are on the outskirts of digital and printed media. At Afrinomenon, we celebrate the diverse expressions and explorations of Black identities in works of science fiction and fantasy. This is a place for us to discuss our monthly book picks. So hang around with us if you are interested in discovering new authors and reading together. We look forward to getting to know you and would love to hear your thoughts and opinions. After the book is announced, the Afrinomenon team will post a few questions here to guide our reading. You can also stay engaged with us on Instagram @afrinomenon and check out our playlists Join us, invite your friends, and hangout with us! Cheers, Afrinomenon
