I've been meaning to read this since 2017, but kept putting it off. I had to wait awhile for my library hold to come in. So many people are reading this right now. 🤔

This is a succinct list of 20 lessons we (should) have learned from the last century on how to turn away from fascism and tyranny. I feel a need to keep running this info through my brain, so I have also placed holds on the audio and the graphic novel versions of this book.

This book was even better the second time around. It‘s a wonderful, funny, entertaining reminder to fight the good fight. I can only imagine what he‘d be saying now if he were still with us in 2025. This book would never be read or taken seriously by a conservative audience, but it absolutely should be. If nothing else, this is a prime example of why conservatives are so afraid of history and historians.

GingerAntics Original Review: This book is funny and entertaining, but also so very important. It addresses some of the hypocrisy of modern conservative thought regarding the constitution along with the actual history on the subject. This book is most assuredly not for a conservative audience. 1d

This book is short in stature and length. And now is a good time to read it. I finished it on a 3 hour flight with plenty of time to delve back into my other book.

On Palestine | Noam Chomsky, Ilan Pappe

I‘m glad I read this after The Hundred Years‘ War on Palestine. Chomsky & Pappe provide the understanding that I felt that Khalidi‘s book did not. However, without reading Khalidi first I would‘ve been lost throughout much of On Palestine.

I now feel that I can justly have an opinion. & while I choose to not voice that here, the one thing I will say is that the United States has exacerbated this war from nearly the beginning & it NEEDS to stop.
