Reading for Justice: A Celebration of Banned Books and Critical Thinking

October 05, 2023, 7:30pm Eastern Time

A participatory fundraiser to help CLBSJ extend access to critical biblical engagement

As part of our 2023 read-a-thon, and in solidarity with Banned Books Week, CLBSJ invites you to gather in support of the edgy books and critical thinking traditions that have shaped us as activists and Biblical interpreters. The event will be a participatory gathering, with members of the CLBSJ community sharing about the reading we are doing, and how it is impacting our understanding of the Bible and our work for justice.

Registration is a sliding scale fee, starting at $5. All proceeds go directly to CLBSJ’s work. Click on the orange button to register and make your gift!

Want to share on October 5? Anyone who is participating in the Read-a-thon is welcome to present on October 5. For more information on how to become a Read-a-thon reader, visit go.rallyup.com/c/clbsj-readathon2023-reader
