Reading Club · Josephine Baker

«I was never scared.» Through the pages of a book, the Renny's Reading Club meets Josephine Baker: artist, dancer, free woman, spy with the Resistance and tireless civil rights activist. An extraordinary figure, able to reinvent herself over and over and to turn her voice and her fame into tools of freedom and change. We meet in the Renny's vintage lounge to read, share feelings and opinions, and let ourselves be provoked by the story of a woman who crossed the twentieth century without letting the conventions of her time define her. An informal, friendly meeting to discover, page after page, not only Josephine Baker the artist, but above all the woman who chose to react, to change and to take a stand. The meeting lasts about an hour, and is in collaboration with L'Eredità delle Donne.
