Chicago Platypus chapters at The School of the Art Institue of Chicago, University of Chicago, Loyola University, and the University of Illinois at Chicago
Chicago Platypus chapter (now) has it’s own Facebook group
Because Chicago Platypus is better looking than NYC and the rest of them, we deserve our own facebook group.
Because Chicago Platypus has got nuthin’ on us, and because the East coast is obviously so much better than the Mid-West! NY Platypus is now on Facebook! Add us, love us, because we love NYC!
This might be of interest to you. Please help spread the word. Also on face book:

“WHAT: Teach-in/Workshop about Pakistan
WHEN: Nov. 7, 2009 6:30 – 9:00 pm
WHERE: Messhall, 6932 N. Glenwood Ave., Chicago IL 60626
HOW TO GET THERE: Red line to Morse el stop
While the war front shifts to AFPAK, the terrorist bombs and the drones kill hundreds, and the war finds endorsement yet again from western feminists; join us as we tell you the other story: the story of decades of repression, the story of brave resistance, and the story of continuous betrayal.
We shall recite feminist expressions of self, sexuality, freedom and dissent through the lives and works of three ground-breaking women poets. We shall contextualize these expressions in broader historical and political backdrop and voice the representations of wars as instruments of destruction of humanity.
Brainstorm with us as we find common threads for building solidarity across the divide. Let’s ask questions!!!”
Hope to see you there!
