Join us on the first Sunday of each month (unless it's a holiday!) to read some of the latest award-winning books as we interpret how they can be tools for social justice.

The UU Women's Monthly Read will allow an entry point into our priority issues and support individuals looking to build on their understanding to be better allies and co-conspirators. Each month we alternate between a book (long form) or an article (short-form). 

THIS MONTH: We're reading an article by Molly Fischer. 

"Good Conflict: The world is consumed by violent fights and hostile disagreements. Sarah Schulman sees a way out of them."

Published in 2020, this profile piece examines the controversial book and life of Sarah Schulman, New York playwright and novelist. We'll be discussing the themes of her book, Conflict is Not Abuse, as well as the ways this idea can be beneficial or harmful in our justice communities. This article delves into her personal history and her work as an lesbian activist during the HIV/AIDS crisis of the 80s. 

Programming runs an hour and a half.

Auto captioning will be available. 

Monthly reads are open to all women, femmes, and gender-expansive folks.
