WSP Book Club
We’d love to invite you to our upcoming WSP Book Club discussion of Know My Name by Chanel Miller.
This powerful and beautifully written memoir is about reclaiming one’s voice and being truly heard. Chanel Miller shares what happened to her and the aftermath, including how the justice system responded to her case and her perpetrator. Her story invites readers to reflect on justice, resilience, and the ways society responds to women’s experiences.
This book offers an opportunity to deepen empathy, engage in meaningful conversation, and reflect on how we can continue to support women with care, respect, and compassion.
We hope you’ll join us for a thoughtful and welcoming discussion.
