Reading is Resistance: A TQNC Book Club & Community Hang 

In times like these, stories are our refuge, our resistance, and our roadmap to a better future. Join facilitator Kimberly Rhoten for Reading is Resistance, a monthly book club and community gathering designed to nourish, inspire, and empower our LGBTQIA2S+ community.

Each month, we’ll read books that challenge injustice, celebrate queer joy, and deepen our understanding of the world and each other. 

*PLEASE NOTE: You do NOT have to read the book to join. This isn’t just a book club—it’s a space for connection. Come for the books, stay for the conversation, and build relationships with fellow queer neighbors who believe in the power of literature as activism.

Where? Virtual (with quarterly opportunities to meet in person!)
When? Monday, October 27th from 7-8PM

What are we reading? We’ll choose together! Books that support us in these times—whether that means radical resistance, queer joy, or both.

October Book of the Month: Love and Rage: The Path of Liberation Through Anger by LAMA ROD OWENS

Because reading is resistance. And resistance is better together.
