Hey Caitlin and everybody in this thread!
I'm Sem, work in Community, Communications and Governance Research at Nexus Mutual DAO and we've been organizing a reading group as well! We are currently 8 people, meet bi-weekly on Fridays at 15 GMT and are reading Governable Spaces by Nathan Schneider. We have a preliminary reading list laid out starting from August: https://forum.nexusmutual.io/t/governance-reading-group-2024-q3-q4-preliminary-reading-list-schedule/1476
I'd love to see if it could make sense to co-organize / collaborate. If not, I'd love to try and join the meetings / discussion.

@semturan Oh that's cool, because the schedule is more accessible for me, on this side of the pond (Luxembourg). Thanks for sharing!

Thanks C, hope to sometimes be able to join in, have been enjoying a few ad hoc book discussions lately! Sem, your group and list looks good too - finding a single meeting time is always tough for larger groups, so even if a couple different groups and times are going on it would be nice to sometimes overlap and read the same book and cross-pollinate. I'll look for Fridays later in the fall that may work for me, but looks like i can't join for a month or two.

I am very confused what this is about.

@Dynamic It's a reading group. :D
The participants choose to read the same book, and meet up socially to talk about the ideas in there. :D
It's one way to bounce idea off of each other. :D

@Billy Smith
From the post, it sounds like the reading group has existed for some time, and that social.coop members are expected to know about it, but it is the first I heard of it, and I found this confusing.

I propose a Meet & Greet. I created this poll in our Reading Group space on Loomio https://www.loomio.com/d/N9C0j2bT/summer-2024-invitation-from-me-for-readingbingov24-/3.
Please respond to this poll for a meeting of the Reading Group: https://share.mayfirst.org/apps/polls/s/6IwAeL4Q. The meeting times are mostly in August at 8 PM and 9 PM (U.S. Eastern time/NYC time) on Monday and Thursday evenings.
