About the event

🧠 Liberatory Reading Hour— Empire of Normality (Robert Chapman)


Liberatory Reading Hour is an intentionally inclusive monthly discussion group for adults who want to engage with books that explore identity, power, liberation, and lived experience. Readings may include work related to neurodiversity, disability justice, race, gender, relationships, and systems.

Participants are encouraged to read in advance; group time is focused on discussion rather than live reading. Conversations are guided by a few gentle prompts and held in a low-pressure, accessible format — without academic expectations or pressure to analyze “the right way.”


This is a facilitated peer discussion space, not a therapy group. Sharing is always optional, and participants are welcome to listen, reflect, or contribute at whatever level feels right.


Discussion prompts may include:

  • What stood out to you while reading?


Tickets

  • General Admission

    Participants are responsible for accessing their own copy of the book (library, ebook, audiobook, or personal copy).
