about anything.

Bonus discussion question:

Are there any books about BIPOC and EM people that you're reading and, if so, what are they about?

My answer is simply "no" BUT I have a few books in my queue that I plan to read soon that will talk about certain individuals and communities of color.

Bonus reminder:

Read: Henry Winston's Strategy for a Black Agenda, even if you end up not liking the book.

It teaches you how to think about strategy and tactics, imho.

    This sounds terrifying, no offense...

    (What you're going through, I mean.)

    Also, I may be estranged from my own Mom at the rate I'm going; I'm already estranged from my abusive Dad...

      It's scary yeah, but it's like I'm seeing what's going on instead of moving through it unconsciously. I think it's helping me get some perspective on trauma I've experienced and how it fits into the larger issues of society that caused and enabled it. It's weird though because it's a lot of new ground to cover that I wasn't even aware of.

        Yeah, that's life; there's lots more to cover, always, than our field of vision...
