Dear FEAST Members,

 

We are only one week from the August 20^th deadline for the discounted conference registration rates, so now is the time to register for the conference.

 

As we look toward out next 20 years, FEAST wants to reach out to more philosophers, scholars in other disciplines, activists, friends, etc. who might not be feminist scholars but who are interested in learning more about feminist ethics, so please share this poster with colleagues in your departments and post it to other academic and activist listservs. I will post it on the FEAST facebook page today, and please feel free to share and distribute it from there, as well.

 

I have included the text of the flyer below.

 

Best,

Asha
