Building Feminist Community and Book Chat

Hello Feminists,

Come hang out and enjoy the company of other local feminists.

In addition to talking about what is on your mind, we will also be talking about Part 1 of the new book, Erased: What American Patriarchy Has Hidden from Us by Anna Malaika Tubbs.

At future meetings, we will talk about other parts of the book. For the table of contents, please see below.

Meet at the cafe in the back on the first floor of Barnes & Noble in San Mateo. 11 West Hillsdale Blvd. Please rsvp.

If you will be later than 6:30 p.m., that is fine.

Looking forward to connecting!
