<3 my favourite series because it opens my imagination.

The Glass Castle

The way she talked about her father's bi-polar, from his sweet and loving side to his drunk, abusive side was very powerful. I can't imagine going throguh that experience.

my favorite book ever

White Fragility

I listened to the audiobook of this. I found it very informative. I know some people are annoyed by some of the things Diangelo says, but she makes a lot of fair points and references a lot of research, as well as combines it with some of her personal experiences. One of the takeaways I have is that you can't break it down to just good and bad. The racist = bad and not racist = good. We can't escape racism because it's embedded in our societal norms. Our laws and rules. All we can do is learn and be better. No one is exempt from racism. Even those who study equity and work to be antiracist sometimes slip up. We (white people, mostly) make inappropriate comments or don't realize that certain things we say or do harm other people. No matter how hard we try to be "good" and not racist, we can't escape the racist ways of this country. All we can do is continue to learn and grow.

I wish I read the book before watching the show! I think I would have enjoyed the book more of I didn't have the show as a frame of reference, but I still really enjoyed this read. #WPFreedomtoRead

Speak

This book is important because it helps young people to recognise both the signs of sexual assault/PTSD and the manners in which cisgender men, may be toxic people. Adults must teach how not to victim-blame the survior of this type of trauma, especially. Helped me feel less alone when I was going through a similar mental health crisis. Unity is crucial for healing.

This was very interesting. I was able to empathize with the authors family history and struggle with his identify.

I appreciated that the TV series didn't follow the book because I appreciated the character development. Aunt Lydia became a sympathetic villain.
