On Accessibility:

The event is open for everyone but not so accessible to people in wheelchairs.

“There is a step before the garden gate and then 5 steps leading to the main entrance, each 17 cm high, door widths in the building vary between 50 cm (upstairs washroom door) and 80 cm (entrance door).

The bathrooms are so far only on the upper floor and in the basement. The door to the meeting room is 75 cm wide (as most other doors in the building). There is no bathroom on the ground floor.

Both washrooms in the building are gender neutral.”

Andspyrna’s reading circle will be held for the second time Sunday third of february. In our last session we read a marxist feminist text by Selma Jones and  Mariarosa Dalla Costa. We decided that for now the topic of our reading circle is the concept and reality of work, since it is one of the concepts that governs our everyday life and has a multitude of meanings. In later sessions we will explore the anarchist notion of the destruction of work and take a further look into a feminist analyses of work and capitalism.

In this upcoming session, however, we want to get a bit more familiar to Marx’s thought and are thus reading the introduction and first chapter of “How to read Marx?” by Peter Osborne.

Discussions will be in English.
