Wow. This was intense. A definite “must read”. This should be used in school. #nonfictionnovember22

I need to further my knowledge and revisit this. It is very academic. #nonfictionnovember22 #skodenreadathon22

An intense account by a foreigner of the Rwandan genocide. He was a missionary and knew the people being murdered in the streets. It was a pretty short and occasionally frustrating account. He didn‘t always explain some of the basics…his wife sent him money but how did he get it when he couldn‘t leave the house. #nonfictionnovember22

This was very academic; however, it provided great information regarding disparities in reproductive healthcare. Gurr contrasts her pregnancy experiences with those available to Indigenous women. Our healthcare system tends to place profits over the health of citizens and this becomes even more evident when differences in class, race, and culture are involved. A depressing but necessary read. #nonfictionnovember22
