About this plan

A new reading session arrives at La Victoria Public Library to ask how Bogotá is told from its margins. Under the title The Fragmented City: Reading Madness, Exclusion, and Everyday Life, the gathering opens a space to read together and talk about city views that rarely show up in school books.

The project brings together texts that give voice to people who live the city through daily hustle, women in working-class neighborhoods, and neighbors who build it with their everyday work. It is an invitation to read the city with other eyes, to recognize what brings us together and what pulls us apart from the idea we have of it.

Entry is free, so you just need to show up ready to listen, read, and share your thoughts. Check the date and details in the source so you do not miss it.
