Hello again everyone!

I checked with our collections department about ordering the Tala Tootoosis
book and unfortunately because it is self-published, it will be
difficult/impossible for us to source through our vendors. So it is
unlikely that we will be able to add it to the library collection.

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news! I have heard good things about both
Three Women and Erotic Stories for Punjabi Widows.

Hello all,

New to the group and looking forward to meeting everyone. Yes to January
and I'll second the Erotic Stories for Punjabi Widows:
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/32075853-erotic-stories-for-punjabi-widows?ac=1&from_search=true&qid=PijmgQpb0v&rank=1
 if
the Tootoosis title is deferred. I would love to read either one.

Good morning radical feminists!

I'm imagining that December is a busy month for most of us - do we want
to wait until January for our next meetup?

I also have a reading suggestion...
'The Awakening of the Kokum Spirit in a Young Woman
<https://www.eaglespeaker.com/the-awakening>' by Tala Tootoosis

It's a tricky one, in that I can't find copies of it available at the
library - but it's available on Amazon, and I'm happy to buy a copy and
pass it around.

Here is some media coverage on the book:
