Book Discussion Group: "Green Is The New Red" and dessert potluck

This location is shown only to members

Hi all, I'd like to invite you to a monthly book discussion group I'm starting in February; please bring a vegan (no animal/sea/honey products) dessert to share - it can be traditional, raw, GF, no sugar, whatever you feel creative to make or bring.

The first book we will read for discussion will be "Green Is The New Red" which looks interesting; though the subject is environmental activism, it has application to animal activism or other current topics as well.

About the book, Green is the New Red: "Part history, part action thriller and courtroom drama, part memoir, Green Is the New Red plunges us into the wild, unruly, and entirely inspirational world of extreme environmental activism. Will Potter, participant-observer and partisan-reporter, is the perfect guide… Green Is the New Red is an indispensable book that will change the way we think about commitment, the limits of protest, and the possibility of radical change." “At times, the reader might mistake this work of nonfiction for a gripping crime novel, only to remember that everything in here is shockingly true.”

PS - I have a cat (for those who have allergies)
