1. Power trips
2. Facilitating their own ethnic cleansing thinking it will protect their families

Goodness, me. I guess you win, then, huh?

I'm happy to help anyone who has good-faith questions about books, but I'm not willing to engage in the year 2025 with antagonistic randomers on the internet.

Good luck to you.

I'm getting this message saying you can't be messaged. I'm an ally living in Ireland (but currently stuck in the US due to circumstances beyond my control).

On Tyranny, by Timothy Snyder, 2017 is more relevant now than it was 7 years after it was first published.

If you don't know where to start in your resistance, start here. 1/2

Octavia E Butler wrote The Parable of the Sower in 1993, and it's a frighteningly prescient book. Available on the shelf or to order from every good (support your independent) bookshop.

Here's a photo of the wonderful Octavia Spencer, 🏆-winning actor, smiling a smile of sunshine on a cloudy day.
