Talking about women’s rights and issues comes with many lenses and intricacies. Salem Public Library invites you to get uncomfortable with us as we provide an opportunity for community members to do the important work of exploring what it is like to be a woman in America. In this series of community conversations, staff will act as facilitators and work to establish a respectful and supportive space for everyone to contribute their thoughts, share questions, and explore the ideas from the readings and videos. Each of the three discussions will have its own focus:

• Session 1: Women’s Safety and Inequality (September 20)
• Session 2: Women’s Medical Needs (October 18)
• Session 3: Motherhood (November 15)

Sign up in advance to receive Zoom access information the day before each discussion.

We ask that you prepare for these discussions by reading or watching at least one entry from the suggested resources list for each discussion.
