秀色短视频

The 秀色短视频 Philosophy Reading Group will meet on Thursday, November 14, from 7:00-8:00 pm in the Lady Slipper Room at the Charlottetown Library Learning Centre, 97 Queen Street, Charlottetown. All are welcome.

During this gathering, we will discuss Todd May's introduction to the philosophy of Gilles Deleuze. The following is a brief overview of the book:

"This book offers a readable and compelling introduction to the work of one of the twentieth century鈥檚 most important and elusive thinkers. Other books have tried to explain Deleuze in general terms. Todd May organizes his book around a central question at the heart of Deleuze鈥檚 philosophy: how might one live? The author then goes on to explain how Deleuze offers a view of the cosmos as a living thing that provides ways of conducting our lives that we may not have dreamed of. Through this approach, the full range of Deleuze鈥檚 philosophy is covered. Offering a lucid account of a highly technical philosophy, Todd May鈥檚 introduction will be widely read among those in philosophy, political science, cultural studies, and French studies."

If you would like to attend, please reach out to Dr. Max Schaefer at mschaefer@upei.ca for more information.

The Bookmark and 秀色短视频鈥檚 Faculty of Indigenous Knowledge, Education, Research, and Applied Studies (IKERAS) will host a book launch for Anishinaabe author Tanya Talaga鈥檚 new book, "The Knowing," on Thursday, November 7, at 7 pm, in the 秀色短视频 Performing Arts Centre amphitheatre (Room 121S). 

"The Knowing" is a riveting exploration of Talaga鈥檚 family鈥檚 story and a retelling of the history of the country now called Canada. For generations, Indigenous People have known that their family members disappeared, many of them after being sent to residential schools, 鈥淚ndian hospitals,鈥� and asylums through a coordinated system designed to destroy who the First Nations, M茅tis, and Inuit people are. Talaga retells the history of this country through an Indigenous lens, beginning with the life of her great-great-grandmother Annie Carpenter and her family as they experienced decades of government- and church-sanctioned enfranchisement and genocide.

This event is free and open to everyone, but tickets are required. To book tickets, go to or call the Bookmark at 902-566-4888.

Please note that challenging topics will be discussed at the event, including, but not limited to, historical traumas, the Residential School system, sexual abuse, and suicide.
