Identity and Knowledge: Intro to Feminist Epistemology 1 – Wednesday August 13th / 6:30 – 9 p.m. with Minh-Tu ([email protected])
Location: SubRosa courtyard, 703 Pacific Avenue, Santa Cruz, CA
Description: My class introduces the idea that you are a philosopher in virtue of living! I am here to provide space and some guidance on how to conceptualize and understand these experiences. In particular, this class will go over why philosophy is important and how our identity (or lived experience) shapes the knowledge we encounter, believe, value, and disseminate. This is an important tenant within feminist philosophy, and so this course could also be seen as a short introductory course to feminist epistemology.
Materials: I have a course syllabus that has access to all readings via Dropbox and supplementary readings! If anyone wants the readings beforehand or the syllabus, please provide an email for me to send stuff to! Something to write with and take notes would be good if they wanted too. ! Contact at [email protected]
Accessibility: The space is accessible and plans to be outdoors! Masks are encouraged but not mandatory, I will have a few available!

A radically different approach to living and learning, Free Skool Santa Cruz is a grassroots educational project beyond institutional control. It is an opportunity to learn from each other and share what we know, to foster communities based on mutual support and autonomy (do-it-yourself-together!).

SubRosa is a collectively run anarchist community space - a place to meet people, share resources and ideas, challenge our assumptions and act on our passions. Let’s create together the world(s) we want to live in now.
And SubRosa is part of the Hub Community Center at 703 Pacific Ave in downtown Santa Cruz - a constellation of projects that support skill-sharing, appropriate re/use of resources, and interconnected, creative communities - since 1994!
