Doing the work

There’s quite a few articles out there giving reading lists of anti-racism books that can be foundational for our rehabilitation as a culture. I am not educated enough to provide you with my own list, so here are a bunch. Pick one and start reading. When you’re done, pick another. And give the one you just read to a white friend. Yes, it’s a lot of reading, but we have a lot of catching up to do.

• The Guardian;
• Bustle;
• The Cut;
• Esquire;
• Slate;
• Toronto Public Library (who still have their own work to do);
• Electric Lit;
• Evening Standard (books for kids);
• Cosmopolitan;
• Today;
• LitHub;
• Buzzfeed (on black-owned bookstores to support);
• USA Today (even the big dumb jock of American journalism is waking up a bit);
