Found in the YA section at my local library, even though this book is for YA, I knew I wanted to read it; there is always another voice I need to hear, another lens I need to look through. This book through story telling, aims to guide you through showing up and how to be better; everyone can benefit from reading it.

My #BookSpin and #DoubleSpin picks for January 2025 are very different books and I expect them to be great in very different ways. Looking forward to both.

Thanks for hosting another year, @TheAromaofBooks

Due to toothache and a dentist visit I've revised my last book of the year choice.

Devastating. 😢 A reminder there is serious work for the Americas to do with respect to racism against Indigenous peoples and the consequences stemming from colonialism. Heavy prices continue to be paid, even by the most vulnerable.

CuriousG This completely gutted me to read. So very far for us to go yet. 1mo

“We have to ask what is lost, who is harmed, and what should be forgotten with the embrace of artificial intelligence in decision making. It is of no collective social benefit to organize information resources on the web through processes that solidify inequality and marginalization - on that point I am hopeful many people will agree.”

Simply put: this book is amazing. Bell has touched on a lot of topics that have never sat well with me around racism that I now have some voice to. His parables about racism‘s permanence in America and how issues need to be reconciled not resolved is, for lack of a better term, eye opening.

While his style is pretty corny he is able to state his points with pristine clarity. He wanted EVERYONE to read this not just intellectuals.

BC_Dittemore P.S. I would love to find more books, or authors, like this. Not just about racism but other important topics as well. So if anyone has recommendations…. 2mo
