After a fairly busy October, we're excited to announce Reading Circle, on Monday evenings! Starting on Monday, November 3rd, every week at 4pm PT/7pm ET/12am UTC, we will read a short feminist text together and then discuss it as a group. No need to read any literature ahead of time, as you can listen to a recorded reading before the session, or listen to it at the beginning of the session. Emails will be sent out one week before, with both a recording and a PDF of the specified literature. Keep an eye on your inbox for info about upcoming Reading Circles!
We'd like to remind everyone that Daylight Savings ends on November 2nd, so please turn your clocks back one hour accordingly. Hopefully there's no confusion about our scheduled programming!
As usual, dates are being shared three different ways; 1) the calendar image above, 2) the listed dates that follow, and, 3) a printable/savable PDF at the bottom of the page.
