Happy New Year!
Sci-Fy and Social Justice
It’s Community Read Time. You are invited to read Octavia’s Brood: Science Fiction Stories From Social Justice Movements with faculty, staff, students and administrators. This book is edited by Walidah Imarisha and Adrienne Maree Brown. “The stories represent a global quest for social transformation, for justice. They are about people from different background and worlds, expanding the notions of solidarity and community, redefining service, and exploring and rediscovering the human spirit in baffling times, under challenging circumstances (Sheree Renee Thomas, 2015). These are timely and critical stories that support our College’s commitment to equity, justice, engagement, and success for all.
Get Your Free Copy
This Wednesday, January 6, the Community Reads is having a kick off for all those participating with us this quarter. At this event you’ll get a deeper introduction into what the book is about, why we’re doing this program at Shoreline, and you’ll also be able to pick up your copy of the book (if you haven’t already done so). Sign up now and please join us tomorrow, January 6, in the PUB, Room 9201 from 1:30-2 p.m to help us kick start this year’s Shoreline Community Read!
If You Can’t Make It
Classified staff and students, if you’re unable to attend this event, you can pick up the book from the Student Leadership Center in the PUB anytime the office is open. The Community Read meetings begin in week 3 of the quarter, January 20th at 12:30 in the Quiet Dining Room in the PUB.
And there’s more!
We plan to have activities on campus that support the focus of this book, and we are hoping to bring the editors to the campus Spring 2016. Some faculty members are using Octavia’s Brood in their Winter 2016 courses.
Questions?
If you have any questions about getting access to the book, please contact Caroline Conley, Rezina Habtemariam or Yvonne L. Terrell-Powell.
We look forward to learning and reading with you this quarter.
