Join us for a friendly gathering and lively discussion of a couple of books:
A Well Trained Wife by Tia Levings
and
Money, Lies and God by Katherine Stewart.
Read one or both.
Together, these two books offer a compelling look at the intertwined forces of Christian nationalism and patriarchy shaping current U.S. politics. A Well-Trained Wife provides a personal, micro-level view of how these ideologies affect individual lives, while Money, Lies, and God reveals the macro-level political and financial machinery behind the movement. They are powerful companion pieces for understanding the human cost and political ambitions of a unified, theocratic agenda.
Bring your thoughts, your favorite passages, and a snack to share if you like. This’ll be a casual and welcoming get-together for local folks who appreciate a good book and great conversation.
Exact Westport location will be shared prior to the event.
This a local Indivisible event!
A core principle behind all Indivisible events is a commitment to nonviolent action. We expect all participants to seek to de-escalate any potential confrontation with those who disagree with our values.
