Dust Jacket Journeys
Sunday, November 9 at 2pm
Join us for our book club, Dust Jacket Journeys, where we invite you to explore perspectives around architecture, art, identity, and place.
Divided into four sections, The Mind, The Body, Self-care, and Justice, Who is Wellness For examines Western âwellnessâ culture and how it exploits and appropriates traditional practices of health and healing among Indigenous, Black, and Brown peoples globally. Roisin weaves memoir and investigative journalism to explore issues of bias, commodification, and accessibility and argues that we must collectively invest in inclusionary and nurturing care for all.Â
