Extended details:

I’m offering a free online reading group on Timothy Snyder’s On Tyranny: Twenty Lessons from the Twentieth Century. It's about what regular people can do when faced with authoritarianism.

I am proposing once-a-week meetings for 6 weeks for approximately 1.5 hours.

Week 1: Introductions, setting the agreement about how we will conduct ourselves in the group, and discussion of Lessons 1 and 2.
Week 2: Lessons 3, 4, 5, 6
Week 3: Lessons 7, 8, 9, 10
Week 4: Lessons 11, 12, 13, 14
Week 5: Lessons 15, 16, 17, 18
Week 6: Lessons 19, 20 and conclusions/takeaways

All who want to join in good faith to contribute to a respectful and connective environment are welcome.

I’m using Signal for safety and privacy Please DM me your Signal username and the reason you would like to join.

I’m sorry, but I will only be able to add people whose Mastodon profile has been filled out and who have a post history.

@Furthering I've been wanting to read that book! It's on my list of 3 and an opportunity to do that with another group and discuss would be awesome. I don't have signal but I can make an account. I've just recently switched to mastodon after leaving meta & TikTok
@Tinman206 Sure, let me know!

@Furthering Let's switch to Signal: https://signal.org/install
