Intersectionality

[close] Inspired by Nicola Griffith's #CripLit twitter chat and the Fries test. The representation of people with disabilities in books is often limited, especially within fiction. This group aims to find and discuss works of fiction with characters with disabilities, specifically those that don't serve as plot devices and whose story arc does not revolve around a quest to cure or 'fix' them. This group is for everyone, regardless of ability. You are under no obligation to self-identify or share more than you feel comfortable with.

[close] I've found a couple of stories in this crossover of genres and I'm optimistic about finding more!

[close] Hosted in Racine, WI, the QBC is a safe place to grow, challenge the status quo and expand your understanding of what is needed for positive change in our community. Covering topics from social justice and advocacy to personal growth and community development, we read a book a month and join together for discussion.

[close] This intersectional group reads works written by and/or featuring people of color who are also LGBT+. This private reading group is open to all. Members do not need to identify as a person of color or LGBT+. Members must only have an interest in work written by and/or featuring people of color who are also LGBT+. Books read monthly by this group are not limited by genre and are chosen each month by the group.
