Readers' Corner

The Readers’ Corner is the Ashe Library’s book club which focuses on writers from the African World with a special emphasis on books highlighting social justice issues. The purpose of The Readers’ Corner is to provide a forum for its members to discuss and gain a better understanding of issues facing the African world.

The Readers' Corner meets on the first Sunday of every other month at TransAfrica Forum, 1629 K Street, NW, Suite 1100, Washington, D.C. from 3:30 to 5:30 pm.

The book selection each month of the Readers' Corner focuses on a different region — Africa, the Caribbean and the Americas (North, Central &
South).
