STUDY GROUP
📚 Join us for our June Radical Study Group series! We will read about and discuss the theme Pleasure & Liberation, honoring our Black and brown q***r lineages just in time for Pride Month.
💜In this study group, we will discuss themes such as imperialism, anti-blackness, and criminalization to make sense of how different communities respond to violence. For June, we will look to q***r Black and brown authors writing on themes of pleasure, eroticism, love and joy to help understand and co-create a vision of what is possible.
🪻This study group is hosted by REP’s Radical Ecosystem Pods team. We will gather in-person to collectively read and discuss a selected text. Our schedule dates are
* Tuesday, June 2nd 5-7 PM
* Tuesday, June 9th 5-7 PM
* Tuesday, June 16th 5-7 PM
🌟 June 2nd, we will be reading “Uses of the Erotic” by Audre Lorde at Loring Park — check out our recent Instagram posts for more details, including our meeting spot and our back-up plan for inclement weather.
