Reading for Humanity

Reading for Humanity hopes to make books focused on diversity, equity, and inclusion more of a part of everyday conversation in the academic workplace. We are all drawn to read, ponder what we have read, and then discuss it with our friends, colleagues, and family. In the process, we facilitate the learning process. Can each of us learn to be more humane to everyone? Can we contribute in a small but meaningful way to making our world more humane? We at Reading for Humanity hope so!

Bookshelves are located in the Medical Science Building in the lobby areas of B level and C level.
