Effective Altruists discussion

I run a few online book clubs, each on a different theme/topic. About once a month or so we vote on what book to read, then vote on what day/time to meet. We take a couple of weeks to read the book, and then have a ≈hour long video chat to talk about it. Old hands and newcomers are welcome. The format is friendly and fairly unstructured; there are no discussion questions, and it is okay if people join only having read part of the book (you don't need to complete the whole book to join, we aren't big on gatekeeping). You don't have to commit to showing up every single month; just join when you are interested in the book. We try to choose books at least a month in advance, and we lean toward books that are easily accessible (thus obscure books without kindle versions or audiobook versions are less likely to be picked). If you want to read and discuss books around any of these topics, feel free to join. Also, feel free to share this info with other people.

Hi Joseph, the slack link is no longer active.

Shri, How about this one? Does this link work for you?

I'm in Joseph's China & Global Priorities reading group, and can confirm it's been great!
