NorCal Book Club – Ecofeminism + All We Can Save

May 19, 2022 @ 1:00 AM2:00 AM PDT

Join us for reading, learning, and community as we discuss books by BIPOC authors.

This month we are focusing on climate change, women, and the environment with two fascinating texts: Ecofeminism by Maria Mies & Vandana Shiva, and the anthology All We Can Save, edited by Ayana Elizabeth Johnson and Katharine K. Wilkinson.

Rather than reading both books in their entirety, we’ll focus on a few sections to help facilitate our discussion:

Ecofeminism:

– Intro (Chapter 1)

– Part 2: Subsistence v. Development (which includes Chapters 4, 5, & 6)

– Chapter 11: Women’s Indigenous Knowledge & Biodiversity Conservation

– Conclusion (Chapter 20)

All We Can Save:

– Begin (Intro)

– Root (Section 1)

– Persist (Section 5)

– Onward (Conclusion)

Of course, members can elect to read whatever sections/chapters that call to them and share their thoughts at the meeting. Hope to see you there!
