SUMMARY:Burn the Page: A True Story of Torching Doubts, Blazing Trails, and Igniting Change
DESCRIPTION:TO JOIN THE MAILING LIST FOR  THE BOOK CLUB CLICK HERE.\n\nTo add books to the list of books to read next click here for the Google Form or here for the Google drive document.\n\n\nOur August book is Burn the Page: A True Story of Torching Doubts, Blazing Trails, and Igniting Change by Danica Roem.\n \n\n\nAn inspirational memoir-meets-manifesto by Danica Roem, the nation’s first openly trans person elected to US state legislature.\nDanica Roem made national headlines when–as a transgender former frontwoman for a metal band and a political newcomer–she unseated Virginia’s most notoriously anti-LGBTQ 26-year incumbent Bob Marshall as state delegate. But before Danica made history, she had to change her vision of what was possible in her own life. Doing so was a matter of storytelling: during her campaign, Danica hired an opposition researcher to dredge up every story from her past that her opponent might seize on to paint her negatively.\n\n\n\nBurn the Page by Danica Roem is far from a typical politico’s book…[it] is an inspiring, fun gonzo page-turner. It’s a must-read.” —Washington Blade\n“A political memoir unlike any other. Inspired by the opposition research she conducted on herself during her campaign, the Virginian delegate chronicles her rise from a metalhead reporter moonlighting as a food delivery driver to a game-changing public official.” –-Electric Literature\n“With grace and humor… this colorful, no-holds-barred account of Roem’s life and political work still delights for its unabashed candor. An inspiring story of self-acceptance and determination.” –Kirkus\nDiscussion will be via Zoom on Saturday, September 24 at 10 AM PDT | 1 PM EDT.
