Join us on Wednesday, December 4th for Cactus Book Club. We’re thrilled to welcome the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) of Wisconsin, who will lead the discussion on I Have Nothing to Hide: And 20 Other Myths About Surveillance and Privacy by Heidi Boghosian. This book is an “accessible guide that breaks down the complex issues around mass surveillance and data privacy and explores the negative consequences it can have on individual citizens and their communities”.

Recommended bookseller: Lions Tooth

The American Civil Liberties Union of Wisconsin “fights to protect, defend, and expand civil rights and liberties – particularly for communities historically denied their rights – through nonpartisan advocacy, community education, litigation, and organizing in order to create a more just future”. Find out more on how to get involved at: ACLU-wi.org

Cactus Book Club (CBC) meets on the first Wednesday of the month from 5:30-7:30 in the back room at Cactus Club. Each month a different community organization, collective, mutual aid group, or business chooses the book & recommended bookseller then leads the discussion. We read sociopolitical fiction and non-fiction, with a focus on works by women, LGBTQ+, POC, and/or otherwise under-published groups. You don’t have to finish reading the book to attend. All book club meetings are free. No registration required. 18+. CBC is part of our ongoing Cactus+ programming.
