Gender

[close] A reading group for reidentified women.

[close] Feminist literature and women's history. All the books you're curious about but have never gotten around to reading! Mostly non-fiction, maybe some poetry.

We'll be reading a variety of books that may fall into one of the following categories: 1-Written by a feminist and/or a woman 2-Plot looks at how gender, race, class, sexuality, ability/disability, ethnicity, nationality, etc. shape us and our views of the world 3-Spark conversation about social justice and gender equality 4-Have strong female characters But most importantly, it's a space for people to come together and discuss literature with other feminists! Reminder: Self-promotion is ONLY allowed in the BLATANT SELF-PROMOTION thread. All other self-promotion will be deleted. fem·i·nist /ˈfemənist/ Noun A person who supports feminism. Adjective Of, relating to, or supporting feminism. fem·i·nism /ˈfeməˌnizəm/ Noun The advocacy of women's rights on the grounds of political, social, and economic equality to men.

[close] For those asking “Why would they say that?” or “How can they think that?”, this is a group where these are not rhetorical questions. We really want to know - whatever your perspective. In this era of social media, I see less of a propensity for critical thinking and learning and more of a drive to shout and turn a deaf ear. We weather socio-economic, racial, religious, political, and other storms with routine frustration and too-often rigorous animosity and slanderous debate. 2020 appears to be one of these storms in our history and developing identity. In this group, we seek to understand. We listen. We think critically and question. Regardless of your position or thoughts on a particular issue, we can all discuss these things through an avenue of books.
