The Campus Community Book Project (CCBP) brings together perspectives from the university and broader community to read a common book and explore an annual theme. Together, we share dialogue, learn collectively, and build community. The Book Project supports the Division of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion’s mission to lead and strengthen UC Davis’ efforts to realize our collective vision of excellence in which people from all backgrounds thrive. 

About the 2024-2025 Book Project

The 2024-2025 Campus Community Book Project focuses on the topic of health equity and justice and features Weathering: The Extraordinary Stress of Ordinary Life in an Unjust Society by Arline T. Geronimus. Fusing science and social justice, Dr. Geronimus’ scholarship explores the ways in which systemic injustice erodes the health of marginalized people. Until now, there has been little discussion about the insidious effects of social injustice on the body. Weathering shifts the paradigm, shining a light on the topic and offering a roadmap for hope.
