Feminist Book Club: November 2024

Join us for the last Feminist Book Club meeting of 2024! We’re reading The Resilience Myth by Soraya Chemaly, a Bahamian-American author, activist, and feminist based in the U.S.

Date: Wednesday, November 20 at 6pm EST
Location: Poinciana Paper Press, 12 Parkgate Road

Kate Manne calls The Resilience Myth “a must-read book for our age.” She says, “Resilience is an ideology—comprising elements of individualism, bootstraps, and even victim-blaming. With characteristically brilliant arguments and meticulous research, Chemaly demolishes this ideology in The Resilience Myth and shows us how to build something so much better for everyone facing adversity.”

We’ll be joined by Soraya Chemaly in the second half of the meeting, so be sure to bring your questions. It’ll be a great conversation about the expectation that individuals be resilient and the ways our communities need to come to together for sustained care and support.

The Resilience Myth by Soraya Chemaly is available in hardcover, ebook, and audiobook. There’s time to get it and read it before November 20!
