[close] Radical Reading is a new GR bookclub group dedicated to nonfiction books on various topics from a progressive, liberating, anti-racist, feminist and queer perspective. We have buddy reads and an active discussion board, where we talk about the books we read, exchange ideas or just have fun. Our goal is to engage in lively, productive and respectful conversations to expand our horizon and become an advocate/activist for positive societal change. The range of nonfiction books we read and discuss is wide, covering genres such as history, economy, art, sociology or politics. Our group is still new and thus a work in progress, however we gladly welcome new members! Please read the guidelines for a membership request. Guidelines for requesting membership 1) Prospective members must have an active public profile; a request from an inactive and non-public profile is rejected 2) We have mandatory questions you must answer when you apply 3) Authors are welcome; however self-promotion is not allowed 4) We may reject an application if we feel that the person is not joining in good faith, e.g. just here to provoke, troll or spread hateful content; or for the reasons stated under 1) and 2)

[close] one of the most asked questions we get is "do you have any recommendations for _______" and so now here we are--a compiled list of all of the books that we have either read, or have heard through the grape vine that gives a pretty holistic and well-thought out approach to whatever topic you're interested in. take each book with a grain of salt, as we hope you do with most things, but we hope these books can open your mind to a world of grace, love and deeper/different perspective on life and the Spirit. We love you all and hope this too can be a space for discussion and more community!
