READING GROUP:
PCPN is excited about our Spring session, Animality: Eating the Animal that therefore I am Be(com)ing. Don’t miss our meetings (almost) every Tuesday evening (8:00pm) at the Bloomfield Crazy Mocha.
This week:
- 02/20 – Donna Haraway, “The Companion Species Manifesto”
- Optional video: https://youtu.be/DqMW9-G2gCo
Pdfs of the readings can be found: HERE
Please bring either a digital or hard copy of the text with you to the discussion.
Time: 8:00pm-10:00pm
Location: Bloomfield Crazy Mocha (4525 Liberty Ave).
As a reminder, even though we have moved to thematic groups, there is no expectation that people participate in every week, so even if you can’t commit to the whole section, you are still more than welcome to join us when you can.
