Socialist Feminist Reading Group | Monthly - 4th Sun. 2pm

Start: 2020-09-27 14:00:00 UTC Eastern Standard Time (US & Canada) (GMT-05:00)

End: 2020-09-27 16:00:00 UTC Eastern Standard Time (US & Canada) (GMT-05:00)

This is a virtual event

Join the Socialist Feminist Caucus for our September reading group, where we'll discuss selections from the classic Third World feminist anthology, This Bridge Called My Back (TBCMB). These are shorter, powerful essays since many of us are returning to teaching this fall.

Links to individual essays have been provided below.

Currently, all SocFem gatherings and discussions are welcoming only those who identify as womxn, non-binary people, or those who identify as a marginalized gender. We ask that men do not participate at this time.
