The Faggots and Their Friends Between Revolutions is a beloved queer Utopian text written by Larry Mitchell with lush illustrations by Ned Asta, published by Calamus Press in 1977. Part-fable, part-manifesto, the book takes place in Ramrod, an empire in decline, and introduces us to the communities of the faggots, the women, the queens, the queer men, and the women who love women who are surviving the ways and world of men. Cherished by many over the four decades since its publication, The Faggots and Their Friends Between Revolutions offers a trenchant critique of capitalism, assimilation, and patriarchy that is deeply relevant today.

Qira SingingWhale (Fae/Faer/Faerself) is a witch and priestess of the Third Degree, spiritual director, and ordained Unitarian Universalist minister in Portland, OR. She has been involved in the Stone Circle Wicca Tradition since its earliest seeds were planted in the late 1990s.

Bring some snacks, settle into a comfy chair, and sit back and enjoy!

The reading portion will take about 2 hours and there will be time for discussion afterwards.
