We'll be making bookmarks and postcards that we can slip into magazines and
books in bookstores around town - angry, anti-sexist sentiments,
body-positive affirming messages, awesome feminist quotes you just want to
share - whatever message you want to convey to a stranger who's reading, we
want to help make it happen.

We've got the supplies. Just come!

*It's time for WAM! Vancouver's second installment of MONDAY MEDIA MUTINY. *
This month, get ready for more creative culture-jamming with DIY bookmarks
and postcards that can be discreetly slipped inside magazines and other
publications featuring sexist and misogynistic content. Their purpose is to
challenge rampant objectification of women and to provoke conscious thought
in fellow consumers, particularly in young people, who are especially
vulnerable to manipulative messages and imagery in the media.
We will provide all the necessary supplies for making postcards and
bookmarks - blank cardstock, black and multicolored permanent markers,
scissors, etc. You are welcome to bring your own art supplies in addition
if you'd like.
Monday Media Mutiny is a once-monthly feminist event organized by Women,
Action, & the Media (WAM!) Vancouver, in which interested folks meet to
perform a quick action that fights back against sexist representations of
women in the media. At the present time, these events take place on the
third Monday of each month at 7pm.
*Location: The Grind Cafe 4124 Main Street**
**Time: 7-9 pm *
If you're on facebook, RSVP here and share the link to invite your friends!

are private and confidential otherwise unless there's a "please share"
request) **
