Writing Feminist Life Together
Writing Feminist Life Together is a collection of 30 feminist teachings that remind us that feminism gives us the invitation to slow down, connect with our body, and nourish our imagination. We combine feminist and ethnic studies research, contemplative writing, and other mindfulness practices, in order to connect our inner life to a world needing healing (r)evolutions. Grab a writing journal and join your host, Dr. Kimberly B. George. See her online courses on feminism, education, and contemplative practice at www.FeminismSchool.com.
