Antiracist Book Club
________________

Event will be held in Slovene.

The anti-racist book club at the Ljubljana Pride Association was organized as a place of reflection on how to address, as a primarily white organization, the topics of anti-racism. We asked ourselves how to talk about anti-racism (do we even have the right to talk about it?) and how to also responsibly act in a supportive way. How can we position ourselves – both as individuals and on the organizational level? We were interested in how to get relevant information and, above all, in what way can our team learn about anti-racism. We started reading books like The New Age of Empire by Kehinde Andrews, Why We Matter? by Emilie Roig and Girl, Woman, Other by Bernardine Evaristo, and had long debates about them. At the festival, we are opening our anti-racist book club to all of you. We will focus on Manifesto by before mentioned Bernardine Evaristo and Feminism Is for Everybody by bell hooks, which recently got Slovenian translations by Katja Zakrajšek and Ana Makuc.
