Gender

[close] Discover and recommend more feminist reads here: https://www.goodreads.com/list/show/96419.The_Feminist_Orchestra_Potential_Reading_List We're also on twitter: https://twitter.com/femorchestra #feministorchestra Sick of sexist comments from people online and being accused of banging my 'feminist drum' by intolerant people I have decided to start a Feminist Bookclub on Booktube. All engagement is welcome though, on youtube, on blogs and on goodreads. This is not 'my' bookclub, however, it belongs to all of us. I strongly believe feminism, which means equality of all sexes in society, not to be about the individual but about everyone and to be a group movement. Therefore, I want this bookclub to be a group. We read one book over the course of two months throughout the year. At the end of the first month there will be a pre-scheduled twitter chat on themes relating to that month's book, which will not require you to have finished the book. A video review will then be posted on Jean (bookishthoughts) or Lauren's (readsanddaydreams) channel on youtube. If you also film a youtube review/discussion or write a review/discussion of the book on your blog please share it with us all by posting it in the reviews thread. Please use #feministorchestra on twitter, instagram and elsewhere so we can all share our posts, thoughts, discussion and book reviews Gender equality is at the heart of this book club so please recognise this in your behaviour. We do not exist to convince anyone of this but to discuss the nuances and individual issues presented by the literature we read.

[close] A space to delve into the purpose and impact of women in literature: looking at work throughout history that has been crafted by writers of any identity- no restrictions! Every individual is welcome, the same ideology being relevant for the opinions of which they hold.

[close] Just a book club for LGBTQIA+ Book Lovers ;) We'll pick a book together once a month and discuss it here and possibly over Zoom too :) Everyone is welcome as long as long as they follow our rules. Thanks!!

[close] BUY THESE BOOKS: https://bookshop.org/lists/booksxwomen "It winds me up that books about young women are seen as frivolous and silly, while books about young men's lives that cover the same topics, are reviewed and debated, seen as valid and interesting contributions to the current social and media scene." Same, Harriet Evans, same. Here's where we'll give books by women the consideration they deserve.
