Hey all, Between The Lines is a #Toronto #SmallPress that's hosting a book launch for "Invested in Crisis", which looks fascinating & I wish I could go (Desc: "Join Tom Fraser in conversation with Deborah Cowen as they discuss the rise of mega-pension-funds and the weakening of the working class.")

Sadly it is only in-person, but I thought I'd let any of my #GTA-located followers who might be interested know.

Two for the daily #SmallPress #books:

Roxy and Coco by Terese Svoboda (WVU Press)
Sisters Roxy and Coco are two glamorous harpies—mythical bird women—attempting to outrun extinction and fix the planet by preventing child abuse, one child at a time.

reposting, since this one got lost when I changed servers...

Thick Press put out this amazing (& super relevant) book called the Encyclopedia of Radical Helping-- all about community-based projects and tactics.

I was lucky enough to be part of it-- i wrote an article on bike and car repair collectives.

if that's up your alley, here's the link:
thickpress.com/?productId=3058

Je continue avec la plongée dans les archives de ma petite maison d'édition ! Après le numéro 1, on va voir le numéro...3 ! (En vrai le thème du 2 était "les grandes explorations", mais éludait complètement la problématique coloniale, ce qui le rend assez...problématique justement selon moi...on progresse que voulez-vous.........😬)
En tout cas ce numéro 3 parle d'un sujet bien moins douloureux 🥵 : le Tarot de Marseille ! Chaque participant·e a eu un tirage en croix de ces mystérieuses arcanes et a créé une histoire/une image à partir de ce que cette prédiction lui inspirait !
