Gary Gutting的《哲學能做什麼 What Philosophy Can Do》是一本討論哲學與公共議題關係的科普書。書內從多個面向討論以哲學作為一種公共議題論辯工具時應該考慮的問題，包括政治、科學、信仰、新自由主義、道德等與公共議題緊密連結卻又難以一語道盡的面向。

想邀請對公共議題的思維和論述方法有興趣但還沒有機會踏入這個領域的朋友一起來參與討論，我們期待不同領域的朋友從各自獨特的角度分享對這本書的看法。

我們經過六次讀書會的深入討論，涵蓋了這本書的前八章，終於迎來最後二章：

第九章：我們可以不要再吵墮胎這件事情嗎？和
第十章：哲學可以做什麼？

歡迎所有對這些主題有興趣的朋友加入我們的討論。

本次科普哲學最終回也會組織出下一本書的讀書會：Journalism in Context，同樣歡迎對新聞、媒體、公共議題、倫理等關鍵字有興趣的朋友一起來聊聊。

謝謝大家！

各位倫敦講臺的朋友大家好，

這個週六(6th July)的下午是歐洲最大的LGBTQ+慶典-倫敦同志大遊行，你/妳是不是摩拳擦掌想要加入這場嘉年華呢？

今年倫敦講臺雖然沒有組隊走入遊行隊伍裡面，但也仍然希望到場邊加油，歡迎有興趣的朋友帶著你/妳喜歡的旗幟和標語，加入我們在場邊搖旗吶喊慶祝的行列。

我們約下午一點在Green Park內的 Statue of Goddess Diana（地點位置請見貼文說明，從Green park地鐵站往白金漢宮方向出站，走路一分鐘即達），集合好後我們會慢慢移動到Piccadilly Circus附近的遊行路線看遊行隊伍進行。

當天手機網路可能會因為擁擠的關係無法正常運作，如果你/妳下午一點半過後在Green Park地鐵站邊沒有找到我們，請直接到Piccadilly Circus附近，尋找你/妳所熟悉的旗幟標語與我們會合。

一如往常，活動結束後會到酒吧或餐廳吃吃喝喝，歡迎有興趣的朋友加入我們，也歡迎一路續攤到 clubbing！（最後一句暫時先保留，視現場朋友們有多熱情+體力多好再來決定 😆）

有任何問題請留言，有任何扮裝的idea也歡迎分享。

這個週末，讓我們一起驕傲上街，傳遞臺灣今年通過同性婚姻合法化的訊息🌈，也替世界上所有正在為婚姻平權和LGBTQ+權益努力的朋友們加油：

#洛杉磯CoopersDonuts暴動60週年
#紐約石牆暴動50週年
#世界首例瑞典同性戀去病化40週年
#世界首例丹麥合法化同性伴侶關係30週年
#跨性別追悼日及雙性戀驕傲日創辦10週年

Join us on Saturday ❤️ It’s our PRIDE time 🏳️‍🌈💃🏻

Nearly 5 years after the Umbrella Movement:
Narratives of young women activists in Hong Kong 2019

Venue: Brunei Gallery B102, SOAS, London WC1H 0XG
Time: 7-9pm Tue 2 July 2019

The Young Girls’ Heart (少女的心）was created in 2015 as a mutual help group on Facebook by the young Umbrella Movement activists to share their common experience of online gender and sexual harassment during and after the Umbrella Movement! Sadly, most of these attacks were from the “radical localists/right plastics!” who were supposed to be our comrades in the democracy movement!

Our international research team, including Professor Stevi Jackson (The University of York, Dr Kong Sui Ting (Durham University) and Dr Celia Chan (HKU) decided to involve these young women in the evaluation of the Umbrella Movement focusing on how social movement participation have impacted on their personal life and relationships! We have produced journal papers and documentary films from this collaboration and hope to share them at HK Watch meeting and our seminars in this London trip!

In the past few years, the Young Girls Heart have worked with us to share our views through seminars, conferences and a multi-media theatre, with a view to raise awareness about gender issues and politics! In 2017, we also reached out to the partners and intimate comrades of the political prisoners and engage them in making their voices heard!

In this seminar, we hope to engage the audience in a dialogue on issues facing HK and the strategies women activists use to protest against authoritarian rule!

講者：葉明叡／Emory University健康政策與管理研究所博士

你知道，台灣的全民健保中的「全民」包括誰嗎？決定誰應該納入健保，背後的理論與決策基礎是什麼呢？這牽涉到公共衛生理論當中，誰屬於「健康共同體」，在健康事務上誰跟誰應該相互扶持、彼此連帶。這場工作坊會先帶大家分別以政府、在台台灣人、在台外國人、海外台灣人等不同角度，來探討「屬於全民」（社會連帶）的「健康保險」（健康共同體）的意義。

常聽到：不准「你們」來用「我們」的健保！你們是外國人、愛滋病患、同性戀者、中國學生、毒癮藥癮者、菸民，還有那些愛吃珍奶雞排又不運動的宅宅，我們全民健保資源有限，怎可浪費在你們這些不配使用的人身上？這是我們常聽到的一些論調。

與此同時，我們（特別是留學生）在海外走跳也很常因身分問題遭遇各種困難，格外能夠體會公民權的重要；在UN機構外面不得其門而入時，更覺國際秩序偽善，甫結束的WHA宣達團，公私部門齊心卯盡全力想讓世界看見，我們是多麼的棒、多值得加入國際衛生社群。

健保的資格、國際組織的資格，這兩者之間有什麼關係？我們為什麼要擁護某一種健保制度？這與我們的民族認同、共同體的命運、地球的自轉、種種的因素，又有何關係？

說到底，「我們」是誰？

6月29日傍晚，想要邀請倫敦的朋友們一起來加深焦慮，陷入共同體的網羅。

倫講新型態活動「Small Talk Festival」
我們邀請在英國生活的台灣朋友/關心台灣的朋友，來分享自己生活當中的觀察、研究與熱情。
希望能夠透過這個天馬行空的活動打開大家聊天的天眼，也打開觀察生活小細節的第三隻眼。
詳細講者與講題介紹即將上線，敬請期待！

Independent Media supports Hong Kong

Speaker: Brian Hioe
Panellist: Shu Yan Chan
Venue: Brunei Gallery B102, SOAS, London WC1H 0XG
Time: 2-5pm Sat, 22nd June 2019

New Bloom editor Brian Hioe will speak about his experiences in Hong Kong last week's protests. Hioe was in Hong Kong to report on the demonstrations there and observed the spontaneous, largely leaderless actions which erupted last week after Sunday’s demonstration (June 9th), which mobilized over one million Hong Kongers in protest, as well as the police violence which took place on Wednesday, June 12th. During the course of police actions against demonstrators on Wednesday, Hong Kong police fired rubber bullets, bean bags, water cannons, and tear gas at demonstrators, reportedly firing close to twice as much tear gas in one day as was used during the entire Umbrella Movement in 2014.

Apart from speaking about his observations last week, as a writer and researcher of Taiwanese social movements and a participant in the 2014 Sunflower Movement in Taiwan, Hioe will also compare and contrast current demonstrations in Hong Kong to social movement organizing in Taiwan.

In the second half, Hioe will be joined by Shu Yan Chan, spokesperson of Democracy for Hong Kong (D4HK) to make a panel discussion on a variety of topics regarding Hong Kong's NO Extradition to China social movement, exchanging ideas as an activist, a documentarist and a supporter of Hong Kong overseas.

Brian Hioe was one of the founding editors of New Bloom. He is a freelance writer on social movements and politics, and occasional translator. A New York native and Taiwanese-American, he has an MA in East Asian Languages and Cultures from Columbia University and graduated from New York University with majors in History, East Asian Studies, and English Literature. He was Democracy and Human Rights Service Fellow at the Taiwan Foundation for Democracy from 2017 to 2018.
