Citywide Book Read

Literature Christianity Black History Month

What’s Happening?

For the eighth year in a row, we are challenging the citizens of Richmond to a City-Wide Book Read during Black History Month, February 2025.

This year's title, White Too Long, examines the legacy of white supremacy among Southern Baptists and other Christian denominations. Richmond's First Baptist Church Senior Pastor, Dr. Jim Somerville, will be joined by Author Robert P. Jones for an in-person discussion of Jones' book.

We invite you to get started on White Too Long, and then join us on Monday evening, March 10 at 7 p.m., for a panel discussion including time for questions and answers. The book is available at Amazon or wherever fine books are sold. The discussion will take place at Richmond’s First Baptist Church. No reservations are required.
