We are migrating our group chats from Messenger to Signal

29/05/2025

We are sunsetting the Messenger group chats of Sappho’s friends. This means that these chats will be taken down 1st of October 2025. In its place there are group chats on Signal:
https://sapphosfriends.no/signal

Why Signal? Signal is an USAn not-for-profit, open-source, end-to-end encrypted messaging service. This means that it is the most accessible and secure messaging app available and will not downgrade their service to make a quick buck. Learn more about how to make the most use of Signal here:

SKOKS - Skeivt Kunst- og Kultursenter, Margit Hansens gate 3, 0190 Oslo, Norway

Monthly book club for queer women, non-binary and trans people. Reading queer literature of all genres and from all over the world.

In August, the book club is reading ‘Bi - Notes for a Bisexual Revolution’ by Shiri Eisner

Shiri Eisner is a genderqueer bisexual Israeli writer and activist based in Tel Aviv. They are an feminist, anarchist and vegan. Shiri has been and continues to be outspoken in their criticism of the Israeli occupation of Palestine and the Israeli far right. Last year they held a lecture titled ‘How Zionist Israelis justify dead babies’ at Oslo Pride.

In Bi, Eisner argues that the subversive power of stereotypes attached to bisexuality should be utilized rather than rejected by bisexual movements. Depicted as duplicitous, traitorous, and promiscuous, bisexuality has long been suspected, marginalized, and rejected by both straight and gay communities alike.

The book is available here: https://theanarchistlibrary.org/library/shiri-eisner-bi. Prismatic Pages also offers a discount for those interested in a physical copy.
