I did a dsa book club thing today on zoom. We were talking about wretched of the earth I was a little nervous cause it was my first time and I'm still a baby leftist. There's more theory for me to read and I just feel my knowledge isn't really there yet to speak with other actual leftist and hold a meaningful conversation. I thought going into the meeting that I would be silent and just listen. Turns out I was wrong I couldn't shut up. I actually kind of felt bad this is my first time really talking with other leftists. I think I was so excited that I just couldn't help contributing to the conversation. I fear I dominated it a little too much, I let others talk of course but man I just really wanted to share everything that I felt reading the book. It felt so good!
