[CONTENT WARNING] These readings touch on themes of the oppression and violence women, nonbinary people and people of color face under patriarchal society. The Mutual Aid Book Club is moving on in our series on Alienation. In transition between Capitalist Realism by Mark Fisher and leading into Stone Butch Blues by Leslie Feinberg we will be reading two shorter pieces which bridge the themes of the two works; The Limits Of Hegemony by Wayne Price and The Destruction Of The Earth Is A Crisis Of Masculinity by Tasha Diamant.

The first goes into an analysis of prefigurative strategy, liberalism, Gramsci’s ‘Hegemony’, and offers hope for the future. The second poses our Ecological Crisis as the result, potentially, of Human Society treating the Natural World the way we treat each other: patriarchal and performative dominance.

Please RSVP to this event to get connection information. The Mutual Aid Book Club meets on the first and third Tuesday of every month.
