Feminism

[close] Bi-weekly feminist philosophy book club, starting with Donna Haraway's "Companion Species Manifesto": https://discord.gg/YnXrKFvd3D This anti-racist, queer-inclusive learning community upholds the rigor of philosophy. Moderation is chill and focuses on safety and well-being instead of traditional 'policing'. This includes being proactive to ensure more safety than is afforded elsewhere, especially since spaces like this are frequently targeted.

[close] A gathering of people in Mount Shasta interested in reading progressive, thought-provoking, well-written non-fiction and fiction, both contemporary and classics.

[close] A group for readers of all genders to discover and share their passion for books by women authors. We enjoy monthly book discussions, challenges, buddy reads, reading bingo, in depth author focus and chat threads. All types of readers are welcome whether you love literary fiction, genre fiction, non-fiction or all of the above! Our monthly group reads, quadrimester, and annual themes/challenges have diverse themes such as black women authors, LGBTQ+, reading around the world, disability and much more. We're sure you'll find something you love! Start with our 2026 plan and see where it takes you... https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/23775635-2026-monthly-themes-annual-and-quadrimester-challenges-bingo-and-autho Rules 1. This is not a women-only group. All genders are welcome, and all should be made to feel welcome. 2.That said, this group is intended to be a safe space. Disagreement is fine but harassment or trolling will not be tolerated. 3. Always remember that good feminism is intersectional! Authors 1. No self-promotion.

[close] OUR SHARED SHELF IS CURRENTLY DORMANT AND NOT MANAGED BY EMMA AND HER TEAM. Dear Readers, As part of my work with UN Women, I have started reading as many books and essays about equality as I can get my hands on. There is so much amazing stuff out there! Funny, inspiring, sad, thought-provoking, empowering! I’ve been discovering so much that, at times, I’ve felt like my head was about to explode… I decided to start a Feminist book club, as I want to share what I’m learning and hear your thoughts too. The plan is to select and read a book every month, then discuss the work during the month’s last week (to give everyone time to read it!). I will post some questions/quotes to get things started, but I would love for this to grow into an open discussion with and between you all. Whenever possible I hope to have the author, or another prominent voice on the subject, join the conversation. If you fancy it, please join up and participate. Everyone is welcome. I would be honoured! Emma x"
