Crank the Pit!!


I was just looking at the Antigone site upcoming events because Nancy Turner author of These Is My Words will be there tomorrow. However, I can't tell if it's a reading. There are some other interesting things coming up, including a visit by Jennifer Block author of a book called Pushed: The Painful Truth about Childbirth and Modern Maternity Care
Wow, we should pack the house, ladies!

Antigone Upcoming Events

And here's a favorite of mine on the politics of birth
The American Way of Birth
by Jessica Mitford. If you've never heard of Jessica Mitford, you should! Here's a great piece at Salon.com about Jessica, one of The Mitford Girls (another great read). She's my Muckraking hero!

Is anyone going to the Jennifer Block reading on the 18th? I'll be there because I just don't have enough things to be outraged about yet. It'd be nice to have company.
