• Postponed D.E.A.L. Book Club – Against Technoableism by Ashley Shew

    Lifespan RE Hour
    UUFCC - Room 6 780 Waupelani Drive, State College, PA, United States

    Discussion facilitated by Emory McKenna. This badly needed introduction to disability expertise considers mobility devices, medical infrastructure, neurodivergence, and the crucial relationship between disability and race.

Even if you are unable to or haven’t read the book, but would like to join the conversation, we welcome you.

    The Justice Singers of Centre County are an open community gathering for those who find power, healing, and connection through song in the face of injustice. The group sings songs of protest, resilience, and hope, drawing from resources like Rise Up Singing. Participants are encouraged to bring themselves, a friend, and an instrument if they like, but no experience is required—just a willingness to lift your voice. The circle also explores opportunities to sing at local actions and events, such as the May Day Strong Day of Action, Pride, and other protests.
