SUMMARY:The BAR Member Meeting - 3/21/2026
DESCRIPTION:From a celebrated author\, the thrilling sequel to The Parable of the Sower—a cautionary novel ahead of its time\, perfect for fans of The Broken Earth trilogy. \nIn 2032\, Lauren Olamina has survived the destruction and ruin of everything she knew. Her peaceful community based on her newly founded faith\, Earthseed\, provides refuge for outcasts facing persecution after the election of an ultra-conservative president. Under his rule\, Lauren’s colony—a minority religious faction led by a young Black woman—becomes a target for the president’s reign of terror and oppression. \nYears later\, Asha Vere reads the journals of a mother she never knew. As she searches for answers\, she struggles to reconcile with the legacy of a mother caught between her duty to her chosen family and her calling to lead humankind into a better future. \n“In the ongoing contest over which dystopian classic is most applicable to our time\, Octavia Butler’s ‘Parable’ books may be unmatched.”—The New Yorker

SUMMARY:Animal Farm by George Orwell.
DESCRIPTION:Animal Farm is a sharp and timeless political allegory that explores power\, leadership\, and corruption. The story follows a group of farm animals who overthrow their human owner\, hoping to build a society based on equality and fairness. What begins as a revolution for freedom slowly transforms into a system just as oppressive as the one they replaced.\nThrough characters like the ambitious pigs and the hardworking horse Boxer\, Orwell reveals how easily ideals can be manipulated when power is concentrated in the hands of a few. The famous principle—“All animals are equal”—gradually becomes distorted\, exposing the dangers of blind loyalty\, propaganda\, and unchecked authority.\nAt its core\, Animal Farm is not just about politics—it’s about human nature. It challenges readers to think critically about leadership\, question narratives\, and recognize how quickly truth can be reshaped when people stop paying attention.
