Sunday, October 9, 1-3pm, Columbus Metropolitan Library, 96 S. Grant Ave.

We will read and discuss the book, The Revolution Starts at Home: Confronting Intimate Violence Within Activist Communities. This book breaks the silence surrounding intimate violence within social justice circles and offers alternatives that don’t rely on the carceral state. It also offers examples of people who have used those alternatives to build a movement where no one is left behind.

You are invited to join us in the auditorium of the Columbus Metropolitan Library, 96 S. Grant Ave., for a two-month reading and discussion group.

Reading group schedule:

Sunday, September 11: pg. 5-52

Sunday, October 9: pg. 53-109
