Given the discourse in some of the Rimu posts in the last week, I thought it may be a good idea to do a weekly book club, to align people on anarchist principles. The alignment may not be needed for already identifying individuals, but could be a good way to allow others/outsiders to gain an understanding of anarchism, what it looks like, and what it means to be an anarchist. I believe you already have something along those lines with the "FAQ Reading Group", but this would be for more historical/established/grounding literature. The envisioned implementation would be: each week there would be a discussion post for that section/chapter (of a relevant, freely available book/literature) and a statement about the next section/chapter set for discussion the following week. Let me know what you think. |

Good idea - even if just to prompt discussion and suggest the book to others. Maybe just a Book of the Week with key quotes etc? |

I think it would depend on the length of the book. My viewpoint is the weekly reading should be digestible by the average user (reasonable number of pages). So if it's a short enough book I think that would be fine. Having the whole book each week may get people interested in the book, but less likely to actually attempt or succeed at reading it all. I think key quotes would be a good addition to the idea. |

Zines are short and plentiful. This might not be the best example of 'book' reading. Maybe a book month with a few chapters each week? |
