These 3 books have been revelatory for me this year, as far as thinking about how to address the current state of things using the blueprints provided by our ancestors.
None of this is new. We don’t have to panic & build everything from scratch.
You picking up what I’m putting down?

Just finished Daughter Of The Merciful Deep by Leslye Penelope and liked it a lot. Reminded me of Ta-Nehisi Coates' Water Dancer and some of Nalo Hopkinson's work

'Teaching to Transgress: Education as the Practice of Freedom' by bell hooks examines how teachers can foster students' freedom in the classroom. I like how she mentions education can be fun. I was surprised a college professor would feel that way.

Only on the first chapter and I am very thankful I can across this recommendation. It addresses every thought I’ve had about my treatment in society- from work, to relationships, etc. Just reading these stories and research just validates my feelings and experiences. 😭 #Blackbooksky
