Come for the book and stay for the conversation.

Join Dallas Girls Book Club for a discussion of The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks by Rebecca Skloot, a powerful nonfiction story about the Black woman whose cells transformed modern medicine without her knowledge or consent.

Led by Emma, we’ll explore the intersection of race, medical ethics, scientific discovery, and the lasting impact of Henrietta Lacks' legacy, while discussing the importance of consent, justice, and whose stories are remembered.
