initiated by Jo Kali and Georgie Sinclair in 2018. From 2018 - 2020 it was held at fanfare, but the third season, which begins in November 2020, will take place online. - We borrow from Sara Ahmed’s citation policy in _Living a Feminist Life_, in which she encourages us to view citations as (re)productive technologies – a tool that circumscribes the world around certain bodies. As such, we prioritise the work of women, trans, non-binary, queer, black, indigenous, POC, working-class, disabled, and other marginalised bodies in our resources and reading materials: “Citations can be feminist bricks: they are the materials through which, from which, we create our dwellings.” Ahmed, _Living a Feminist Life_, p.16. - Announcements for our reading groups are sent to our mailing list every month, to which you must RSVP in order to participate. - There is a maximum of 12 spots for each session which are offered on a first come first serve basis. - All resources and materials are provided digitally prior to each session. - Meetings are held in English. - _fanfare_, our host venue for our in-person events and reading groups, is on the ground floor and wheelchair accessible. - _plot twist_ aims to offer a safe space for everyone involved. Any form of bigotry – racism, sexism, classism, homophobia, transphobia and ableism – is not tolerated, and you will be asked you to leave if you behave in a way that offends or upsets others. - See our community guidelines for more info on how we run things. - Occasionally, we organise public activities and events, which are announced via our social media channels. News July 13 2021 EMBRACING VALUE Max Haiven writes that western society is suffering a crisis of imagination, with the seamless spread of capitalism into every part of our lives. In the next and final session of the season, we are reading from the zine Radical Care: Embracing Feminist Finance, to challenge our thinking about money, explore ideas about finance that lie outside of our current economic paradigm, and think about how these may be put into practice. Within capitalism, economic systems impact us all yet they can often seem far removed or complex to the point of abstraction. For this session, you will need no prior knowledge of these topics as we will be learning together. We will look to hopeful models – such as open value cooperation and local currencies – to embrace different values, with a focus on locality, cooperation, and care. The zine asks the question: \"If you could break down one patriarchal structure within the current economic paradigm, which would it be and what would you replace it with?\" To answer this, we can look at suggested models from the zine and supporting texts, such as gift economies to social and artistic initiatives, to speculate on new ecosystems of value.

The project is rooted in a desire to better understand our attachments and relationships to the textual form, and engage with wider questions around meaning, language, semiotics, citation, forms of writing, and alternative ways of knowing. In the first iteration of the BAD READER series, we will read Lydia Davis’ ‘Fragmentary or Unfinished’ from her latest essay collection Essays (2019), alongside a few passages from Roland Barthes’ The Pleasure of the Text (1973). Davis’ essay looks at the fragmentary text to ask questions about the idea of wholeness or completion in a work, and how the form lends itself to grief, thinking (as a process), incoherency, and the destruction of narrative. In The Pleasure of the Text, Barthes theorises on what it means to enjoy a text, insisting on the importance of developing an erotics of reading. It is also written in fragments ;-). \\BAD READER is a series of reading sessions organised by Jo Kali and Georgie Sinclair. It will be integrated periodically (as and when fit) into the plot twist programme between 2021-2022. Reading sessions are non-committal; you do not need to have participated in previous or plan to attend future iterations of BAD READER to join. We hope to share more information on the expanded programme soon.

Quota system The National Origins Act of 1924 set a 2% annual immigration cap based on the total U.S. population of foreign-born people by nationality. Immigration and Nationality Act The 1965 law repealed the quota system and, for the first time, stopped restricting immigration from non-European countries. 1882 2 We help you engage more of your brain Our interactive features encourage critical thinking and promote calm understanding.

Quota system The National Origins Act of 1924 set a 2% annual immigration cap based on the total U.S. population of foreign-born people by nationality. Immigration and Nationality Act The 1965 law repealed the quota system and, for the first time, stopped restricting immigration from non-European countries. 1882 2 We help you engage more of your brain Our interactive features encourage critical thinking and promote calm understanding.
