IMBY Book Club: Who Is Wellness For? By Fariha Róisín

  • Virtual via Zoom! (map)

Join IMBY for a book club discussion on Who Is Wellness For? by Fariha Róisín!

This event is free and open to IMBY members and non-members. Come see what IMBY is all about!

Join us for our bi-monthly social justice-themed book club meeting led by our wonderful IMBY member Ashley Cruz. In March we will be reading Who Is Wellness For? by Fariha Róisín. Feel free to grab a copy of the book (we love grabbing it at the library!) and read it before, or just join along for the conversation even if you don't get a chance to read any or all of the book ahead of time.

⚠️ Content warning: This book discusses child abuse, domestic abuse, sexual assault, suicidal ideation, self harm, abortion, racism, and several more sensitive topics. Please read at your own discretion, and take good care of yourself. You are more than welcome to join our chat without reading any or all of the book, and we will not be discussing these topics in depth during our time together (though they may be mentioned). You can find a full list of user-submitted content warnings here.

You can find all of our 2023 book club books here, if you want to peek ahead at what's to come!

At IMBY our zooms always are video and participation optional, and we always offer live closed captioning and transcription.

About IMBY:

IMBY is a virtual community center for people who give a shit about co-creating a more just and equitable future.

IMBY is a place to practice rest, to find nourishment, tools, and resources, and to connect with others who are seeking the same. IMBY is a place to be — to learn, soak up knowledge, connect deeply to one another — and not another membership program with a long to-do list. It's a place to be social off social media.

It's a community co-created by the members, with transparency at its core. We hold anti-oppressive, anti-racist, and anti-capitalist values (though not an anti-racist educational space; we leave that to the experts, of course). We celebrate a variety of lived experiences, opinions, backgrounds, and identities while holding our values, security, and harm-reduction at the highest importance.

We seek to be your favorite place on the Internet to kick off your shoes and slide into your slippers, to take a load off, your soft place to land, exhale, and feel seen, heard, and understood, while simultaneously being the soft space to have hard conversations.
