Social Science

[close] Monthly book club. Novel Ideas Book Club was started to gather a group of enthusiastic, socially conscious and passionate people together to read, review and discuss new and/or recent non-fiction books related to cultural studies, technology, social science, psychology, health, criminal justice, political theory as well as biography and memoir. Our goal: to broaden the way we understand the world around us through new ideas and diverse perspectives. The NIBC meets the last Tuesday of the month in downtown Ottawa. Please check the message board on Facebook for details about the location.

[close] Hello! This used to be a Feminist February book club but I decided to host my feminist readalong in March instead since it's already Women's History month. I want February to JUST be black history month so I switched it. I'm still trying to think of a cute name for my read-a-long but I will be posting a Google Form to pick this book club read on January 1st! I will link it here. :-)

[close] Exciting new group that will be reading and discussing anthropological theory and ethnography.

[close] We gather to think through and challenge ourselves on the ideas, methods and arguments that disrupt and then form the basis of society. No matter (or, perhaps, because of) how much we may disagree with these ideas and among ourselves, we trust that we will be challenged on what makes us human and how we can contribute together to something greater through our gathering.
