Chicago rapper Noname launched her own book club in 2019 that focused on books written by people of color. Now, the club has its own headquarters in the Jefferson Park neighborhood of Los Angeles called the Radical Hood Library.
The Noname Book Club’s official Twitter account announced the news on September 30 that included an invite to the grand opening on Saturday (October 2).
“We are so excited to finally open our Radical Hood Library!” the tweet read. “This is a black led organization that was created to service black/brown folks and the RSVP prioritization will reflect that. There will be music, free food and more! Please bring a new or used book. See you there!!!”
