Write your senators!

The US has 300,000 Haitian immigrants, embedded in our communities, who are in danger of being deported as Trump attempts to end Temporary Protected Status.

The Book Group meets online at 7 pm

7/27 THE HEART GOES LAST – Margaret Atwood The Heart Goes Last is a vivid, urgent vision of development and decay, freedom and surveillance, struggle and hope—and the timeless workings of the human heart.
