Tuesday, August 11, 7PM at Bluestockings Books, 172 Allen Street in New York City
Release Party & Reading with several contributors from Sick
Sick collects peoples' experiences with physical illness to help establish a collective voice of those impacted by illness within left/DIY communities. The zine is a resource for those who are living with illness as well as those who have not directly experienced illness themselves. Join several contributors for a reading from Sick as well as a discussion on experiences related to illness and the importance of creating networks of support within our communities.
