CL Book Club Meeting 1

Join educators and lifelong learners for the first meeting of the 2026-2027 Connected Learning Book Club. Hosted virtually on Thursday, November 12th, the Connected Learning Lead Ambassadors will hold discussion of the book, Digital Leadership: Changing Paradigms for Changing Times by Eric C. Sheninger. Focusing on gaining skills and tools to lead innovative change in education as society and technology evolve in the 21st century.

Agenda:

  • Introductions and quick review of Book Club norms (will draft these to send out)

  • Discussion (either done as a whole group or in breakout rooms depending on size of group. Usually there are guiding questions to help keep the discussion moving. I can also put these together to send out beforehand. That way people can take notes and be prepared ahead of time.)

Usually the meetings are no more than an hour.

About the Book

The #1 New York Times bestseller and a USAToday bestseller! 
A timely, crucial, and empowering exploration of racism—and antiracism—in America


This is NOT a history book.
This is a book about the here and now. 
A book to help us better understand why we are where we are.
A book about race. 

The construct of race has always been used to gain and keep power, to create dynamics that separate and silence. This remarkable reimagining of Dr. Ibram X. Kendi's National Book Award-winning Stamped from the Beginning reveals the history of racist ideas in America, and inspires hope for an antiracist future. It takes you on a race journey from then to now, shows you why we feel how we feel, and why the poison of racism lingers. It also proves that while racist ideas have always been easy to fabricate and distribute, they can also be discredited. 

Through a gripping, fast-paced, and energizing narrative written by beloved award-winner Jason Reynolds, this book shines a light on the many insidious forms of racist ideas—and on ways readers can identify and stamp out racist thoughts in their daily lives.
