Join in the reading and the conversation for a community reading program in Fruita during May. Fruita for Equality is organizing a reading program featuring “Rising Out of Hatred: The Awakening of a Former White Nationalist” by Eli Saslow. A launch event for the program will be at 5 p.m. Friday, May 7, at Fruita Civic Center Park with an open community discussion about equality, race, diversity and inclusivity, according to a news release from Mesa County Libraries, which is one of the collaborators for the program. “Rising Out of Hatred” is about Derek Black, a former American white supremacist. The book “contains a powerful narrative about one’s capacity to change in their heart and mind. We are excited to share this narrative with our community and hope that it sparks a healthy discussion on community values,” said Shanachie Carroll, a member of the Fruita for Equality community and manager of the Fruita Branch library, in the news release.
