SUMMARY:LaborFest 2018 Immigrant Girl\, Radical Woman\, a Memoir from the Early 20th Century
DESCRIPTION:Presented by Robbin Henderson\, Matilda Rabinowitz’s memoir challenges assumptions about the lives of early twentieth-century women. In Immigrant Girl\, Radical Woman\, Rabinowitz describes the ways in which she and her contemporaries rejected the intellectual and social restrictions imposed on women as they sought political and economic equality in the first half of the twentieth century. Rabinowitz devoted herself to the notion that women should be entitled to independence\, equal rights\, equal pay\, and sexual and personal autonomy. After immigrating from the Ukraine to the US\, she was radicalized by her experience in sweatshops and became an organizer for the Industrial Workers of the World from 1912 to 1917 before choosing single motherhood in 1918.

SUMMARY:Launch for Katrina McHugh / Pop Charts (with live music by Laura Weinbach)
DESCRIPTION:The Bindery hosts an evening of art\, design and music as we celebrate the launch of Pop Charts: 100 Iconic Song Lyrics Visualized a collection of art prints by local artist and authorKatrina McHugh\, paired with a live music performance byLaura Weinbach of Foxtails Brigade. Please join us! \n  \nPlease note: this is a ticketed event — advance tickets are available at a discount. \n  \n  \nTest your musical knowledge with this fun compilation\, filled with 100 beautifully designed infographics\, that pays homage to the songs we can’t get out of our heads — inspired by lyrics from artists such as Madonna\, Fleetwood Mac\, Paul Simon\, Prince\, TLC\, Bob Dylan\, Weezer\, and more. \n  \nThroughout our lives\, a vast catalog of random popular song lyrics swirls around in our collective subconscious\, a hodgepodge language of inconsistent metaphors and cultural references tying us together. In Pop Charts: 100 Iconic Song Lyrics Visualized\, artist Katrina McHugh presents a visual exploration of 100 songs we can’t get out of our heads — from David Bowie’s Space Oddity to the Beastie Boys’ Sabotage and Beyoncé’s Run the World. Playful and poetic\, the lyrics are dissected and diagrammed in a way that allows us to see old favorites in a new light. This book is for those who enjoy testing their obscure lyric knowledge. Song name and artist can be found on the back of each page. \n  \n\n  \nKatrina McHugh is a local artist\, creative director and co-founder of the female-led branding and strategy studio\, Flight Design Co. She graduated from University of California\, Santa Barbara where she majored in Creative Studies with an emphasis in Book Arts. She lives and works in San Francisco where she consistently tries to push herself out of her comfort zone (most recently with very humble attempts at salsa dancing). She wore an eye-patch as a child and enjoys moderate length walks on Ocean Beach with her tiny terrier\, Francine. \n  \nThe Hollywood Hills-born daughter of a horror filmmaker and sister of a cult comedian\, Laura Weinbach grew up in a household that embraced eccentricity. Her next-door neighbors were circus contortionists with emus and fang-toothed monkeys as pets and her childhood activities included snail hunting and spying on celebrity neighbors like Slash\, Ice-T\, and Larry from Perfect Strangers. Front-girl for Foxtails Brigade\, a local Bay Area band\, she is known for her trademark voice\, classical guitar intricacies\, and lyrical imagery. Laura will be performing solo at this event. \n  \n\n  \nRSVP appreciated by not required. \n  \nBar opens at 6:30\, event begins at 7pm.

SUMMARY:Picture Book Surgery!
DESCRIPTION:What makes a great picture book? Let’s find out together! We’ll dissect our favorite picture books\, focusing each month on a different angle. We’ll go on a book hunt through the bookstore\, and then finish up with some time to write down or sketch about what we’ve discovered. \n  \nIllustrators Charlotte Cheng and Diana Toledano lead this workshop/book club where all participants come to learn from each other. \n  \nThis is the perfect event for author/illustrators looking forward to meet some colleagues\, discover new books\, and learn more about the craft. Authors interested in illustration\, and illustrators interested in writing are also welcome. \n  \nThis Month’s Topic is: The Role of Grown-Ups in Picture Book Stories. \n  \n\n  \nThings to Note: \n\nFeel free to bring a book from your personal collection\, but remember\, a good surgeon doesn’t have a relationship with the patient. In other words\, please do not bring your own work to discuss.\nThe people at the Booksmith are super kind letting us host our meetings there\, but they won’t be giving us any special treatment… You can politely ask them to carry your books or host your author event\, just be aware that the answer might be “no”.\n\n\nSpace is limited\, so sign up soon!\n\n  \n\n  \nThis is a monthly SCBWI Member-Hosted Event. \nTo get in touch or to join our mailing list please write us at: picturebooksurgery@gmail.com

SUMMARY:YOU'RE GOING TO DIE: POETRY\, PROSE & EVERYTHING GOES...
DESCRIPTION:Friday\, July 13\, 2018\n7:30 PM  10:30 PM\nThe Lost Church (map)\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTHIS IS A FRIDAY SHOW!!!!\nDoors at 7:30pm\nShow at 8pm\n$10 online & at the door…\nTICKETSSSSSS: https://ticketf.ly/2lfDzI \nYOU’RE GOING TO DIE: Poetry\, Prose & Everything Goes…\nis an open mic event\,\na communal offering for us to explore the conversation of death & dying\,\nto embrace our losses & mortality\,\nto grieve\, bereave & honor those we’ve lost & love…\nwhile all the while making room for simply being ALIVE. \nSign-ups will be the night of & the list fills up quickly\, so if you want to perform\, you’d better get there early… \nIf you’re going to perform\, keep it under 5 MINUTES. That’s right: 5 MINUTES. WE WILL TIME YOU. And we will hug you when we have to stop you [just to make it easier on you (or harder – depending on your propensity for intimacy)]. \nPoetry\, prose\, music\, dancing\, comedy\, drama\, happy\, sad\, & on & on & on… Remember: EVERYTHING GOES… so do whatever you want. \nYou don’t have to perform anything; the audience is as essential as the performers. \nPlease don’t perform anything with a setup that takes much more time than the time it takes for you to walk onstage. Honestly\, plugging things in is endlessly boring. If you need to borrow an instrument\, figure it out before you’re called to the stage. \nIMPORTANT ::: DON’T TAKE YOURSELF SO SERIOUSLY. Come and have fun. The end. Remember. Someday\, we won’t exist and neither will the English language. If you choose to take yourself seriously\, then take yourself so seriously that it’s stupid. Ridiculousness is encouraged. \nYou’re Going to Die. No. Really. You are.

SUMMARY:Elizabeth Rush
DESCRIPTION:Elizabeth Rush discusses her new book\, Rising: Dispatches from the New American Shore. \n\nPraise for Rising \n\n“Sea level rise is not some distant problem in a distant place. As Elizabeth Rush shows\, it’s affecting real people right now. Rising is a compelling piece of reporting\, by turns bleak and beautiful.”―Elizabeth Kolbert\, author of The Sixth Extinction \n\n“A smart\, lyrical testament to change and uncertainty. Elizabeth Rush listens to both the vulnerability and resiliency of communities facing the shifting shorelines of extreme weather. These are the stories we need to hear in order to survive and live more consciously with a sharp-edged determination to face our future with empathy and resolve. Rising illustrates how climate change is a relentless truth and real people in real places know it by name\, storm by flood by fire.”―Terry Tempest Williams\, author of The Hour of Land \n\n“A strange new kind of travel guide\, Rising is a journey through the turbulent forefront of climate change―the coastal communities\, rich and poor\, human and nonhuman\, that are already feeling the first effects of our rising seas. Elizabeth Rush sets out to put a face on a subject that is all too often depicted in abstract graphs and statistics\, and gives us a group portrait of the men and women who are fighting\, fleeing\, and adapting to the terrible disappearance of the land they live on.”―Charles C. Mann\, author of 1491 \n\n“In this moving and memorable book\, the voice of the author mingles with the voices of people in coastal communities all over the country―Maine\, Rhode Island\, Louisiana\, Florida\, New York\, California―to offer testimony: The water is rising. Some have already lost their homes; some will lose them soon; others are studying or watching or grieving. Though they haven’t met each other\, their commonality forms a circle into which we are inexorably pulled by Elizabeth Rush’s powerful words.”―Anne Fadiman\, author of The Spirit Catches You and You Fall Down \n\nAbout Rising \n\nHarvey. Maria. Irma. Sandy. Katrina. We live in a time of unprecedented hurricanes and catastrophic weather events\, a time when it is increasingly clear that climate change is neither imagined nor distant―and that rising seas are transforming the coastline of the United States in irrevocable ways. \nIn this highly original work of lyrical reportage\, Elizabeth Rush guides readers through some of the places where this change has been most dramatic\, from the Gulf Coast to Miami\, and from New York City to the Bay Area. For many of the plants\, animals\, and humans in these places\, the options are stark: retreat or perish in place. Weaving firsthand accounts from those facing this choice―a Staten Islander who lost her father during Sandy\, the remaining holdouts of a Native American community on a drowning Isle de Jean Charles\, a neighborhood in Pensacola settled by escaped slaves hundreds of years ago―with profiles of wildlife biologists\, activists\, and other members of the communities both currently at risk and already displaced\, Rising privileges the voices of those usually kept at the margins. \nAt once polyphonic and precise\, Rising is a shimmering meditation on vulnerability and on vulnerable communities\, both human and more than human\, and on how to let go of the places we love.

SUMMARY:Launch for Heather June Gibbons / Her Mouth as Souvenir
DESCRIPTION:The Bindery hosts the launch event for Heather June Gibbons‘ Her Mouth as Souvenir\, winner of the 2017 Agha Shahid Ali Poetry Prize. More information to be announced soon\, but please save the date and join us! \n  \nIn a startling voice propelled by desire and desperation on the verge of laughter\, these poems leap from the mundane to the sublime\, from begging to bravado\, from despair to reverie\, revealing the power that comes from hanging on by a thread. Poet Heather June Gibbons conjures belief in the absence of faith\, loneliness in the digital age\, beauty in the face of absurdity —all through the cataract of her sunglasses’ cracked lens. In this debut collection\, we are shown a world so turbulent\, anxious\, and beautiful\, we know it must be ours. Under pressure\, these poems sing. Includes a fore-word by Jericho Brown. \n  \n  \nFrom the poem “Bobby Reads Chekhov”: \n  \nThey say if you’re sad\, you haven’t been\nsmiling enough. Want to make better decisions?\nEat more cheese. Perception is reality\,\nmy horrible boss used to say when I’d try\nto explain anything she couldn’t see\,\nthough maybe she was right. Can we know\nreality any other way? The painter saw\npurple in the trees\, so he painted them purple.\nLeaving the gallery\, we see purple everywhere.\nStudies have shown meditation makes\nbrain waves akin to coma. Is that so\,\nyou say\, fingering your tiny screen. \n  \n\n  \n“Not since Josh Bell’s No Planets Strike have I encountered an emerging poet’s book that took the top of my head off with as sure a slice as Heather June Gibbon’s Her Mouth as Souvenir. Her language is wicked\, syncopated and full of canny stings\, with a quality of idiosyncratic consciousness that’s ut-terly contemporary. This is a singular collection\, serving notice that Gibbons is a force with whom poetry readers will be thrilled to reckon.” – Erin Belieu\, author of Six Slant and Black Box  \n  \n“Part garage-rock\, part requiem\, part power ballad\, Gibbons’ book is a whirl-ing ‘study in loss.’ These pulsing poems sing\, shout\, and interrogate everything from desire to the digital age to a Mid-western waterpark\, while luring us into their restless beauty\, fervor and humor. Her Mouth as Souvenir is both torch and torch singer as it shines its light into our mouths\, illuminating us.”  – Simone Muench\, author of Wolf Centos  \n  \n\n  \nHeather June Gibbons was born in Utah and grew up on an island in Washington state. She is the author of the poetry collection Her Mouth as Souvenir\, winner of the 2017 Agha Shahid Ali Poetry Prize and forthcoming from the University of Utah Press. She is also the author of two chapbooks\, Sore Songs (Dancing Girl Press)\, and Flyover(Q Avenue Press). Her poems have appeared widely in literary journals\, including Blackbird\, Boston Review\, Drunken Boat\, Gulf Coast\, Indiana Review\, jubilat\, New American Writing\, and West Branch. She received an MFA in Poetry from the University of Iowa Writers’ Workshop\, where she held a Callen Graduate Scholarship\, and she has been the recipient of a Full Fellowship Residency from the Vermont Studio Center\, the Pavel Strut Poetry Fellowship from the Prague Summer Program\, the Agha Shahid Ali Scholarship from the Fine Arts Work Center\, and the Harold Taylor Prize from the Academy of American Poets. Heather teaches creative writing at San Francisco State University\, and in the community as a Teaching Artist for Performing Arts Workshop\, a youth education non-profit. She lives in San Francisco. \n  \nPlease note: this event will be at The Bindery at 1727 Haight. \n  \nThis is an all ages event. The bar opens at 7\, event begins at 7:30pm. \n  \nRSVP appreciated but not required.

SUMMARY:Kelli Maria Korducki discusses her new book Hard To Do: The Surprising Feminist History of Breaking Up
DESCRIPTION:About Hard To Do \n\nFrom Jane Austen to Taylor Swift\, a look at the surprising politics of romantic love and its dissolution. \n  \nWhatever the underlying motives – be they love\, financial security\, or mere masochism – the fact is that getting involved in a romantic partnership is emotionally\, morally\, and even politically fraught. \n  \nIn Hard To Do\, Kelli María Korducki turns a Marxist lens on the relatively short history of romantic partnership\, tracing how the socio-economic dynamics between men and women have transformed the ways women conceive of domestic partnership. With perceptive\, reported insights on the ways marriage and divorce are legislated\, the rituals of twentieth-century courtship\, and contemporary practices for calling it off\, Korducki reveals that\, for all women\, choosing to end a relationship is a radical action with very limited cultural precedent.

These little moments when we achieve\, with the aid of another\, some kind of sublime\, and time and space sort of dissolve and we’re right where it feels we’re meant to live—those little moments are quick sparkles\, these efforts to pin them down in poetry feel as sweaty and muscular\, as desperate and full of passion\, as the sex itself. Each one a little flare\, a little death\, an I was here.”\n—MICHELLE TEA\, author of Against Memoir and Black Wave
