Since this relates directly to a book I‘m going to assume it will be palatable to the “only talk about books on Litsy!” people. Let‘s discuss.

I learned in the tagged book that First Nations people were enslaved before & alongside African & Malagasy people in Canada in the 17th & 18th centuries. I shouldn't have been surprised - after all, I already knew colons had done it in Central & South America - but because my mental picture of Canada re slavery is the 19th c. Underground Railroad, it passed me by. Another rabbit hole to explore...

I thought I'd finished my deep dive into the French Revolution for the foreseeable 😔future, but then my library got Race et Révolution française (Race and the French Revolution) which ticks so many boxes for me I had to borrow it 😍
Incidentally, I am pretty sure I saw those Equality between the races playing cards at an exhibition and took photos, but I absolutely cannot find them again

Naturally, Snyder‘s 20 rules on tyranny are pertinent & should be read & absorbed by everyone. But I am so grateful I was able to listen to this expanded edition. Snyder goes deep into the Ukraine/Russian War and how central Ukraine has been to history.
I learned so much & I cannot recommend this version enough.
What a fun, wacky, adventurous read! I really enjoyed this, and I am looking forward to reading the sequel.

The library goddesses have it in for me. Just as I started reading Animal Farm & 1984 for #withthebanned, my hold for Parable of the Sower came in after 4-ish months. I've finished all 3 last week, but I haven't had the mental capacity to post a review. After several days, this is still all I can come up with:

I recommend all three, but not at the same time. 🫠

I am audio booking while rage gardening…. grateful to be in the healthiest space i‘ve been in for 10 years- and terrified about the loss of my medication when i can‘t afford the affordable care act medication. This is not the most evil regime in history but this time period will tell us who the true hero‘s are. #overcomingevilempires #antifabookclub #readingispolitical
