Anti Racist

[close] So, you've stumbled upon our book club. Welcome! We're the young bookish activists of planet Earth. We speak our minds, we read, we have fun. Are you a bookworm? An activist? A night owl? A reader of YA? Well, then we invite you to check out our group. Start by introducing yourself. What we do: ☀ Book of the Month ☀ Reading Challenges ☀ Daily Polls ☀ Games ☀ Debates ☀ Member of the Week ☀ Buddy Reads ☀ and more! - fellow bookish activists

[close] A group for two friends to contemplate and discuss anti-racism and anti-racist values while challenging each other to enact anti-racist change in their lives and communities.

[close] Anti-Racism Reading Group for mental health professionals. Thank you so much for your interest in this group. I'm thrilled that others are willing to support each other as we do this important work. I want to start by saying I don't claim any ownership or leadership of this group, and I think we can make decisions together as a group. Having said that, my intention is that this group is explicitly anti-racist and explicitly intersectional feminist. These past few days (May 2020), many of us have probably been thinking something like "I know that I need to do something, but I don't know what to do." Black leaders have been pretty consistent in their advice to White people: White people need to learn. So I spread invitations to this group primarily to White people. Not to centre us, but because we are the ones who need to do this work. But we are not going to limit membership or participation based on race or any other identifying factor. I invited clinical psychologists (including students) and other mental health professionals in the hopes that our discussions can include themes related to our professional work. Please introduce yourself, vote in a poll, start or respond to topics in the forum, and add books to the group shelf! You may need to "verify your email" with Goodreads before it will let you post in the group.

[close] Hello, jelly beans and mushrooms! This is a book club to read Queer and BIPoC literature, science fiction and decolonising our library. Come read with me, it's a safe space where we have discussions and talk about this dystopian "reality". There will be a new book every 2-3 months, most of them will be free and available online unless otherwise. I will be setting up a discord where discussions will take place, so stay tuned :))) Okay, well let's read!
