Long live the Feminist Book Revolution: The Salon that Makes Paris Vibrate
In the effervescent world of contemporary feminism, there are voices that are heard louder than others, initiatives that illuminate our quest for equality. One of these voices is that of Julia Pietri, aka Pop'Féministe, the creator of the famous Instagram account @Gangduclito and Better Call Julia editions. In 2018, she launched the Merci Simone Club, a celebration of the diversity of feminism that would revolutionize our ideas about online activism.
The Merci Simone Club: Dare to Meet in Real Life
The Merci Simone Club is much more than just a hashtag. It's a rallying cry for feminists of all backgrounds, a call to get off social media and meet in real life. Because, let's be honest, it's time to move from the screen to human encounters, to create concrete connections beyond comments and likes.
Celebrating Contemporary Feminist Diversity
The Merci Simone Club has a clear ambition: to celebrate the diversity and vitality of contemporary feminist thought. Here, there is no fixed feminism, no single model to follow. It is a space where everyone can make their contribution, where every voice counts.
The Feminist Book Fair: An Idea That Comes to Life
In October 2021, a new star was born in the feminist firmament: the Feminist Book Fair . This brilliant idea took shape thanks to the legendary Librairie des Femmes and its entire dedicated team. The first two editions of the show took place at the Espace des Femmes Antoinette Fouque, under the watchful eye of Élisabeth Nicoli and Christine Villeneuve, President and co-director of the edition of Femmes Antoinette Fouque.
Two Memorable Editions: Invaluable Support
These first two editions were memorable, marked by inspiring meetings, fiery discussions and thrilling feminist energy. They have proven that feminism is nourished by literature, thought and exchange.

Building on this resounding success, the Feminist Book Fair is expanding and preparing to take Paris by storm in 2024. Ground Control will be the scene of this impatiently awaited third edition.
Uniting Feminist Forces: A Bold Mission
