Starting on November 19th, the Bureau is hosting a brand new monthly reading group: the Radical Queer Reading Group!
Join us as we read radical leftist texts with a focus on queer liberation, anti-capitalism, and anti-colonialism. For November 19th, we’re reading EVERYTHING FOR EVERYONE: AN ORAL HISTORY OF THE NEW YORK COMMUNE, 2052–2072 by M.E. O’Brien and Eman Abdelhadi (Common Notions, August 2, 2022, paperback).
We’re meeting Wednesday, November 19th at the Bureau of General Services—Queer Division in room 210 of The LGBT Community Center in the West Village, 7-8 PM.
Copies of Everything for Everyone: An Oral History of the New York Commune, 2052-2072, by M.E. O’Brien and Eman Abdelhadi (Common Notions, August 2, 2022, paperback, $18) are available to purchase at the Bureau. Purchase the book before November 19th and receive 15% off ($15.30 instead of $18). Just mention the Radical Queer Reading Group when you check out.
Thank you for supporting the Bureau by purchasing books from us!
This event will take place in person at the Bureau of General Services—Queer Division, on the second floor (room 210) of The LGBT Community Center, 208 W. 13th St., NYC, 10011.
Registration is not required. Seating is first come, first served.
The Bureau will solicit donations at the beginning of the event—we especially encourage donations from those who do not plan to purchase any books.
All are welcome to attend, with or without a donation.
We will pass a bag for donations at the start of the event, but we can also take credit card donations at the register or on Venmo @BGSQD
Even better: sign up to make a monthly tax-deductible donation to the Bureau!
Thank you for committing to sustaining this vital project!
The next meeting of the Radical Queer Reading Group will take place on Wednesday, December 17th, at 7 PM.
Starting in January 2026, the Radical Queer Reading Group will meet on the second Wednesday of every month.
