The book club is open to African American sistahs who not only enjoy and appreciate Black literature, but also understand its value and importance to our Community. We will meet once a month, excluding December, to dine and discuss our monthly selection. Our primary focus will be African-American authors but also authors throughout the African Diaspora. We also see the group as one that gives back to the community - parti …

There's a group for writers but they're all 40-50 years old, there's a group for artsy folks (I'm assuming, I don't know this for a fact), there's a group for twenty somethings but all they do is the geeks who drink circuit, but there's no group for creatively persuaded 20 somethings who like to drink coffee and shoot the shit about stuff (be it intellectual fodder, books, art, music or just whatever), So I decided to start one. I guess this is really just a veiled attempt to make some like mind …

… Sure, there are books about the topic. (Heck, I wrote one myself!) And there's enough porn out there to last a lifetime, but how much REAL, down to earth, sexual education is available in an environment where you can really relate to others in the same boat you're in? Where you can get your questions answered honestly and with a real health care professional, whose goal is not to judge, but to teach? Let me assure you, this Meetup is strictly about helping you grow your knowledge of the opposit …
