Learn Differently | VOL’s monthly Reading Group (june)
Writers, poets, philosophers, and artists have written theories and created beautiful worlds that inspire us to live differently. Throughout the history of patriarchal racial capitalism, there have been stories that allude to a different way of being. In VOL’s monthly reading groups, we explore some of these histories and stories in community.
VOL’s June reading group will be on Octavia Butler’s Parable of the Sower. Written 32 years ago, this novel takes place in a dystopian future in California. Join us for a discussion on how to build the courage, skills, and community to exist differently in the face of a seemingly (or literally) burning world.
