Social Issues

[close] A place to discuss books about artificial intelligence, data, and technology with a social impact. We read 4 books a year, which are selected using a voting process. While reading the book, there will be an option to discuss the book via video call in addition to asynchronously in the associated channel. Share your thoughts at any time: when you start reading a book, if you find an interesting idea or your opinion changes while reading, or if you find some other resources related to the topic.

[close] In our increasingly connected world, we are better able to open up and listen to each other’s stories. This ability is critically important as we move forward as a global society. In this book club we will be reading books that look at various social justice issues, from anti-racism to the fat activist movement, from queer and trans issues to poverty, these stories are all interconnected and make us who we are as a world.

[close] Subtext - An underlying and often distinct theme in a piece of writing or conversation. Sutra - A thread, a lesson within a larger education. When we cultivate all that is ignored, hidden & suppressed and weave all those different threads together, it is astonishing what we can learn and achieve. As the founder of Cultivate & Co, I really believe in my process of cultivating new knowledge, using that to create better habits & evolve our perspective which ultimately leads to incredible changes. My goal is to read 50 books this year. I strongly believe a part of developing our spirituality is heavily linked to our ability to understand other's experiences, challenge our own views, unlearn what doesn't serve us or anyone around us and cultivate that knowledge to help others. These books are a part of my development and I'd love for you to share that journey with me, gorgeous gorgeous girls are carefree but never care less.
