Hi friends! After 17-odd years, we’re making a tiny little change to our name. We’ve heard from some in the community that it wasn’t inclusive enough. We mulled over lots of big changes but in the end we’ve settled for subtle. From here on, we’re Edmonton Lesbian+ Book Club. We hope this keeps us in your search engines but also lets our enby and trans friends know this group is open.
Just to reiterate WHO WE ARE: We welcome queer women of all ages, genders, ethnicities, religious backgrounds, and socio-economic classes to attend. We also welcome the presence of their families, friends, and community members who get it. We wish to specifically extend a welcoming invite to Indigenous and Black women, disabled women, fat women, trans men and women, bisexual women, non-binary peeps, people of colour, and asexual women.We commit to doing our best to engage with parts of our communities that have been excluded. As such, there will be no identity policing and we trust that each and every one reading with us respects and supports this.
