Greetings,
It’s my pleasure to welcome you all to 2 GAIN&GIVE book club. This book club consist of a group of women of different cultures, beliefs, ethnicities and walks of life.
These women use books to gain knowledge, wisdom, insight, self-help, consciousness and strength; to not only share and uplift one another, but to share and uplift others as well. Our goal is to donate books to inner cities libraries, county jails, prisons and any other facilities that lack funding for books. We believe that by donating books it will enhance the overall betterment of individuals.

Assata: An Autobiography
This book was recommended to me by my comrade and mentor Shaka Shakur. I had never heard of Assata Shakur. This book was every bit of breathtaking. Her strength and resilience were moving and powerful! Her story was enlightening and inspiring. This book is no doubt a MUST READ! – Nairobi

Shackled & Chained
This book is a must read. It’s very informative and an easy read. It speaks to the corruption in the legal system and the violations against those trapped in mass incarceration.

Exceptional book and very enlightening. In many instances it makes you realize how much false and misleading information that we have been taught in public schools.
