On Saturday, November 2 from 6-7pm, we will have a SPOOKY READING GROUP POTLUCK at West Lake Park.

On theme for Halloween and Day of the Dead, Alisa Puga Keesey will lead us in a discussion of the essay “What is it like to be a bat?” (We think we can observe bats at dusk at West Lake!). Alisa wants the community to know that the essay is heavily philosophical and dense. In our first meeting, Flora Lu called for inclusivity in our group so that we can speak across disciplinary divides without alienating any of our members, so the discussion will welcome perspectives, questions, and confusions from all of our members.

Please sign up to bring a dish to share here. COSTUMES ENCOURAGED!

Presented by the THI 2024-25 research cluster, UC Santa Cruz More-Than-Human(ities) Laboratory.
