Our Town Is (Still) Not a Mall
A proposed Business Improvement District (BID) would transfer public funds and significant authority over downtown to Asheville’s wealthiest “stakeholders”... and it's eerily familiar.

Youth OUTright Book Club

A queer book club for 2spirit, queer, trans, and questioning youth ages 11 to 24! In June, participants will be discussing the queer gothic horror novel The Spirit Bares Its Teeth by Andrew Joseph White.

The Spirit Bares Its Teeth features an autistic trans protagonist in a historical setting. New York Times bestselling author Andrew Joseph White's much-anticipated sophomore novel does not back down from exposing the violence of the patriarchy and the harm inflicted on trans youth who are forced into conformity. (Use promo code YOBOOKCLUB to save 10% at checkout.)

To register for this event, please email YouthOutright.

Youth OUTright engages in intersectional and intergenerational dialogue with a focus on gender and racial justice. Their work includes programming for youth ages 11-24, training for youth-serving organizations, and advocacy for policies that protect queer and trans youth. www.youthoutright.org

The organizer of this event marked it kid-friendly. 😛
