Why Read Together?

The book documents the year-long reading curriculum we organised in 2024 that explored different social, political, and economic matters which affect our everyday lives. From the way protest chants travel across localities, to the language of gentrification, to the role of food in queer community building practices. This book includes playful reading methods such as performative storytelling, spatial reading choreographies, and critical neighbourhood walks, alongside a conversation on the urgency of collective reading.
