Hi, I’m not a professional philosopher but have been interested and reading various philosophical works over the years and would love if there’s other people interested to read together and have discussions. I’m pretty sure there are such groups online but I would love for something like this to be an intentional offline community where we foster intellectual curiosity, dialogue and opinion exchange. Of course, we could have fun community building events too!
As for what I envision we could do readings on
– Ancient Greek philosophy
– Ancient Chinese philosophy
– Buddhist philosophy
– Western continental philosophy
– Critical theory
etc.
My readings are mostly on continental philosophy and critical theory but I sometimes like to explore Ancient Greek and Chinese works as well.
I don’t have base access but I live close to Gate 2. My idea is we could look into cafes or community centers that would allow us to meet and get together and this could be a 1-2 times a month thing. I am certain the community center nearest to me would allow this, but depending on where members live we would have to rotate the avenues.
If there’s people interested, please comment or DM me. I will try to set up a Discord server if there’s enough interest.
P.S. We could add Africana philosophy literature to the list too if there's people interested, I am trying to get into that too.
