Abundance Book Club
Sun., August 24, 2025, 2:00 pm
Divine Barrel Brewing
Discuss a popular new book about the future of liberal politics with us!
Join CLT Engage for a book club discussion about Abundance by Ezra Klein and Derek Thompson! This book is written towards a liberal audience, and discusses errors of Democratic governance in the past several years while charting out a proposed new course for the future.
We have reserved the private barrel room at Divine Barrel Brewing for this event, and there will be a food truck on site offering hot chicken, burgers, and more. Come enjoy fellowship, brews, and food with us while also giving your perspective on the Abundance theory of the political future!
