Our May 23 Bethel Book Club will be discussing The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks, by Rebecca Skloot. We will meet at 1 p.m. at "Sabu's Books," the great new bookstore owned by our own Sabreena Anowar! "Sabu's Books" is at 4603 John Garry Dr, Suite 12, just west of Las Margaritas restaurant.

The Immortal life of Henrietta Lacks is the astonishing true story of how cells from a poor Black woman, taken without her consent, have been used for decades since her death in the development of many medical advances, all without the family's knowledge or any compensation. It explores uestions of bioethics, the history of experimentation on African Americans, and legal battles over control of the stuff we're made of. Plan now to join us for discussion of this fascinating, stranger-than-fiction story!
