Sunrise plus my weekend reading plans. It's so peaceful and only ✨️45°✨️!! I love it here. ❤️
I didn‘t read this book because I thought it would be good, I read it because I wanted to reread one of the books that I loved in middle school. It‘s not a very good book, but it made me happy to reread it.
Gutwrenching bio with multiple themes of colonization, Christian evangelism, eugenics, and racism. It tells the story of Ota Benga, a Mbuti (“pygmy“) Congoloese man who was kidnapped by an American thinly veiled as a missionary, brought to the US for show at the 1904 St. Louis World's fair, exhibited with monkeys at the Bronx Zoo for white people's amusement, then released with Black support.

Turning up pregnant after parental sexual abuse, abandoned after marriage while pregnant etc give many, many endearing back stories to the characters of the Berachah House in Texas.

I‘m not sure what I was expecting but this memoir was full of surprises. Omar Sharif Jr reflects on growing up as the grandson of iconic Egyptian film star Omar Sharif while also being raised by his maternal Jewish grandparents, both of whom were Holocaust survivors. Raised in Montreal, Sharif (half Muslim) attended Jewish Day school, had a Bar Mitzvah, affectionately called his grandparents Bubbi & Zaide and hid from EVERYONE that he was gay.👇🏼
