Happy spring to our intersectional feminist literature readers out there! ❤
💌 Come along to the ‘Intersectional Feminist’ Book Club by MSA Womens! We meet monthly to read texts and think together about gender, race, class, s*xuality, power, and the ways literature rearranges how we understand the world around us. If you’ve ever wanted a space where literature is thoughtful, honest, political, critical, and very alive — this is it & everyone is welcome, regardless of gender! 💋 Aside from reading the texts, no preparation is required beyond curiosity and a willingness to sit in a room full of interesting people and listen and discuss.
Our next theme is centred the idea of the ‘Unruly Woman’ + s*x and desire.
We’ll be reading some short texts in lieu of the end-of-semester tumult:
📖 Selected poems from Sandra Cisneros’ ‘Loose Women’ (You Bring Out the Mexican in Me and Loose Women)
📖 Audre Lorde’s ‘Uses of the Erotic’.
🌟We encourage you to access your libraries and SURLY for the novel, but we will send you a copy of the text if you contact MSA Women's or yours truly (emily zhong) ❤
Details for the meeting:
📆 Monday, 5th October
⏰ 2PM
📍Women’s Lounge, upstairs of Campus Centre
Looking forward to some evocative and slightly contentious discussions, as always! ⋆⭒˚.⋆
Sending love,
Emily
