54% of US adults (age 16-74) — roughly 130 million people — read below a 6th-grade level. Why is nobody talking about this? To fight back, we started an online book club to study the great texts of Western Civilization. If the collapse in reading is not addressed now, we risk losing everything. Every 4-6 weeks, we read a new great work together: we've covered texts like Homer's Iliad, Augustine's Confessions, Dante's Inferno, and Don Quixote. We're about to start reading The Brothers Karamazov. We are reading the great works slowly, intentionally, and in dialogue with each other. If you'd like to be part of this, please join our reading group. Consider a paid subscription if you'd like to support — it makes a HUGE difference to the time and resources we can dedicate. We are entirely funded by our members. You'll get: - Live book club discussions (biweekly) - Access to our incredible community chat - Essays to guide you through the Great Books - All past recordings, essays, and podcasts - Ability to vote on what we read next athenaeumbooks.com/welcome Welcome!

Q: People say that you're a racist. Elon Musk: My partner is half Indian, and I have four children with her…So I would say I'm not racist.
