"Phase 1” of the Pleasure Activism Book Club consisted of a group of my 5 closest girlfriends. We have known each other for over 10+ years and have navigated our adolescence into womanhood as a group of support together. Separately, we have vast and varying experiences but we all still with a common goal, "to understand and learn from the politics and power dynamics inside of everything that makes us feel good." Each of us took the month of December (2020) to read the book in a way that has some form of pleasure or self-care represented while doing it. This group of lovely ladies have given me feedback on the next iteration of this process.

The next future step for the Pleasure Activism Book Club is to have a website space that not only contextualizes the book but may also serve as an actual online community space with Forum chats, community news updates, and overall Pleasure Book Cub business that supports the pleasure journey of the individual.

partnering up and collaborating with multiple pleasure organizations of the city of our choosing, the Pleasure Activism Book Club will host "pleasure fest", a 2-day event dedicated to love, joy and pleasure while also supporting local businesses in trade and resources and bringing pleasure activists together to build community and spread pleasure awareness.
