[close] Häerzlech Wëllkomm an eisem Bookclub!

[close] This is a safe place for pro-Palestinians Readers and Activists for Palestine is a goodreads community created by a group of friends aiming to educate people about the war and crisis going on between Palestine and Israel. Follow our group to join discussions and debates, get the latest unfiltered news, learn about Palestinanian history, culture, books and politics and to share resources for boycott. After joining feel free to look through different topics, ask questions, start discussions and spread the word of Palestinian resilience but please make sure that anything you say is fact checked and proven with evidence. From the river to the sea Palestine will be free

[close] My Body, My Book Club aims to connect people and create communities. We read fiction books (with the odd memoir here and there too) that deal with different aspects of how we understand bodily autonomy and exemplify how we can get involved and support each other. Issues such as gender-based violence, racism, homelessness, displacement, abortion, obstetric violence, and the rights of marginalised communities, like the challenges faced by LGBTQ+ groups, are just some of the topics we cover. We know this is heavy stuff, but the book club hopes to foster empathy as well as raise awareness and question established narratives. Our main goal is to connect communities. So, for each session, we partner with a charity working with the subject we will be reading about in the novel, and we invite an expert on the topic to join our chat. (Also, all proceeds from the sale of tickets will be donated to the month’s charity.)
