SUMMARY:Nonfiction Book Discussion Group: Stories Are Weapons
DESCRIPTION:The Nonfiction Book Club meets the first Monday of each month 
 at 7 PM. Registration is not required.  Just read the book and join us for 
 the discussion.  Note: We always love hearing from new people with 
 different perspectives\, and we promise not to bite. \n\nThis month's book 
 is:\n\nStories Are Weapons: Psychological Warfare and the American Mind\nby 
 Annalee Newitz\n\nAnnalee Newitz looks at how the stories we absorb — 
 from everyday internet chatter to sweeping political narratives — quietly 
 shape what we believe and how we behave.  Drawing on history and 
 contemporary reporting\, Newitz shows how powerful groups have long used 
 storytelling to steer public opinion\, but also how ordinary people push 
 back\, reinterpret\, and reclaim those stories. The book invites readers to 
 think about the narratives we live inside and the choices we make about 
 which ones to accept\, resist\, or rewrite.
