Deconstruction

[close] There are probably few theoretical writers (already problematic) that have put forward a range of texts that are ridiculously challenging and difficult to read while simultaneously bringing excitement and original invaluable insights to the reader. During my readings as a student I discovered Jacques Derrida as one of these rare geniuses. This group is intended to provide people interested in the work of Derrida with a platform to exchange ideas, organize read-alongs, enjoy mutual difficulties and failures to understand and embrace the beauty of dissemination and deconstruction (without saying that there are only enjoyable sides to deconstruction).

[close] This group is intended as a platform for those intrigued by the work of Gayatri Chakravorty Spivak. We can organize read-alongs, post individual reading experiences and difficulties, etc.

[close] Conversations surrounding racism, fascism, and history. With the goal to learn, build community, and hold ourselves accountable.

[close] one of the most asked questions we get is "do you have any recommendations for _______" and so now here we are--a compiled list of all of the books that we have either read, or have heard through the grape vine that gives a pretty holistic and well-thought out approach to whatever topic you're interested in. take each book with a grain of salt, as we hope you do with most things, but we hope these books can open your mind to a world of grace, love and deeper/different perspective on life and the Spirit. We love you all and hope this too can be a space for discussion and more community!
