Welcome to Litsy!

I stand in full solidarity with protests happening right now in the US #BlackLivesMatter.
As a white women, I see it as my task to educate myself on my white privilege and the racism my country profits from. These three books talk about their experiences as POC living in America, and I recommend it wholeheartedly.

Took me way too long to finally pick this up. Now that I have, I can't wait to get started on #WeWereEightYearsInPower, even though I know what a tragedy it is.

Nothing like pouring myself a nice cup of breakfast. ♥️☕️
