Description: My class introduces the idea that you are a philosopher in virtue of living! I am here to provide space and some guidance on how to conceptualize and understand these experiences. In particular, this class will go over why philosophy is important and how our identity (or lived experience) shapes the knowledge we encounter, believe, value, and disseminate. This is an important tenant within feminist philosophy, and so this course could also be seen as a short introductory course to feminist epistemology.
Materials: I have a course syllabus that has access to all readings via Dropbox and supplementary readings! If anyone wants the readings beforehand or the syllabus, please provide an email for me to send stuff - contact at minhtuv9@gmail.com
Accessibility: The space is accessible and plans to be outdoors! Masks are encouraged but not mandatory, I will have a few available!

Description: No Gods. No Masters. No Addictions.
This is a space for folks who are ready to face the compulsive behaviors that are throwing off balance and creating toxicity in our lives—whether you're just starting, in the middle of the journey, or have been working on it for a while.
THIS IS NOT AA.
This is about open conversations, sharing our struggles, and supporting each other through the process of healing and growth. While we focus on breaking free from compulsive behaviors, it's not just about alcohol or drugs. If you're tackling any compulsive behavior—be it work, food, gaming, or anything else—we're here for you.
You don't have to have it all figured out or be "sober" to join. We're here to share tools, skills, and approaches that have worked for us in the hope that they'll work for you too. Let's build a supportive community where we can grow together.

Description: This course explores the dynamic interplay between ecological processes and our psychological experience. By examining five core ecological principles, students will gain insight into how these same patterns shape human narratives, emotions, behaviors, and relationships. Ecopsychology invites us to move beyond the isolated self and into a deeper, more relational understanding of our place within the living world. Through this lens, we engage with both the beauty and the complexity of life on Earth—psychologically, ecologically, and ethically.
Accessibility: outside, masks not required, accessible to all.

SubRosa is a collectively run anarchist community space, a place to meet others and challenge our assumptions and act on our passions. We strive to create a vibrant environment for events, classes, meetings, organizing, performance, art, studying and more. SubRosa also offers radical literature for sale, and houses the Anarchist Lending Library. We welcome folks to join us in fostering an environment free from coercion, sexism, queer&homophobia, racism, ableism and other hierarchies.

SubRosa is part of the Hub Community Center, in downtown Santa Cruz, CA which is the unceded homelands of the Awaswas-speaking Ohlone people known as the Uypi, who stewarded these lands since time immemorial. Centuries of colonial violence led to the removal and displacement of the Uypi. The Amah Mutsun Tribal Band, comprised of the descendants of indigenous people taken to missions Santa Cruz and San Juan Bautista during Spanish colonization of the Central Coast, is today working hard to restore traditional stewardship practices on these lands and heal from historical trauma.
The Santa Cruz Hub for Sustainable Living includes a constellation of projects that support skill-sharing, appropriate re/use of resources, and interconnected, creative communities - since 1994! http://www.santacruzhub.org

Comments on the SubRosa website are fully moderated. As a collective, we agreed that the purpose of the website was to promote SubRosa, not to provide an online place for lively and invigorating debate. We hope that the space itself is where conversations on the nature of anarchism and local projects will take place. That said, we occasionally approve comments that are informative or reflect a viewpoint we feel it is important for website visitors to read.
