The Black Woman: An Anthology | Toni Cade Bambara

What a powerful book this was! Featuring essays from different Black women, this book was likely seen as radical in its time (1970). We need these words followed by collective direct action, now more than ever. These voices discuss how all issues intersect with a lens that only Black Feminism can give.

Outrageous Acts and Everyday Rebellions | Gloria Steinem

#5JoysFriday @DebinHawaii

I'm a day late, but I wanted to join in. The last few months have been awful. However, the last few days, I've started feeling so much better. 🤞I'm out of the cycle of constant asthma flare-ups and chest infections.
My 5 joys are
1) 🌞📚☕️🐞🦋🐦‍⬛🦉
2) The dawn chorus
3) Gloria
4) It's Mother's Day tomorrow, thinking about my beautiful mum, gone for 22 years but never forgotten.
5) My aunt's gorgeous yellow magnolia

AllDebooks Yesterday was the one year anniversary of my aunt's untimely death. Her magnolia that she gifted to me is about to come into bloom. 💔🌸💔 3mo

Happy #Chatterday 🌞

It is a bloomin' gorgeous spring day. 🌞☕️🌞 I'm sitting in the garden with a coffee. And I actually feel really well today for the first time in months.

How is everyone today?

@Bookwormjillk @dabbe @Cuilin @kelli7990 @TheBookHippie @Chrissyreadit @Catsandbooks

Bookwormjillk Happy Saturday! I'm so glad to hear you're feeling well. What a winter for you!

It's going to be a nice day here too. I'm doing some paperwork now, but planning on hitting a book sale in a bit then spending all the hours possible outside. I have a bunch of seeds I need to plant. 3mo

AllDebooks @Bookwormjillk that sounds like my idea of a perfect day. Enjoy x 3mo

Cuilin So glad you‘re having a good day!! 💚We‘re having a winter storm warning till noon tomorrow. 😣 My body is still adjusting to new meds. I‘m going to see David Sedaris Sunday night!! Today will be mostly an indoor day. 📖 3mo

Cuilin @Bookwormjillk Wishing and hoping for spring weather here in New England. Enjoy! 3mo

Bookwormjillk @Cuilin hope it comes soon! We seem to have gone straight from winter to summer here. 3mo

AnnCrystal Glad you're feeling better 🙏🏼💝. 3mo

TheBookHippie @Cuilin Hope your body adapts soon!! It‘s winter here through April at least! 3mo

TheBookHippie @Bookwormjillk have fun!!! 📚📚📚 3mo

TheBookHippie I am achy today but I‘ve pushed a lot this week to be able to do things I want to do. Just tea and books! Spring arrives mid May here if we‘re lucky! 3mo

TheBookHippie Glad you‘re finally having a good day!!! Yay!! 3mo

quietlycuriouskate So glad you are feeling better! Mr K and I had a (necessary) fight, which turned into a deep conversation followed by a walk to the library. On balance it's good, but I'm feeling rather out of sorts ‘cause I hate it when my plans are derailed without warning. 3mo

dabbe Glad you're feeling good! 🤩 Pippa had a seizure yesterday, so we're staying in today and taking it easy. She usually needs a day off to recuperate, so books and dog cuddles! Hope everyone is having a lovely day. 🩵💙🩵 3mo

AllDebooks @Cuilin Oh wow, #fangirling Let us know what he was like 😀 3mo

AllDebooks @AnnCrystal thank you x 3mo

AllDebooks @TheBookHippie thank you. Make sure you're well rested. x 3mo

AllDebooks @quietlycuriouskate oh dear. Sometimes, it is necessary to clear the air and reach a resolution. I hope the rest of your day came good. X 3mo

AllDebooks @dabbe oh no, poor Pippa. Hope she's recovering and you're both making the best of a slow day x 3mo

BooksandCoffee4Me I love that phrase: “A bloomin‘ gorgeous spring day” 💛 3mo

TheBookHippie @dabbe awe poor pup! 3mo

TheBookHippie @quietlycuriouskate ♥️ 3mo

dabbe @AllDebooks TY! 🩵💙🩵 3mo

dabbe @TheBookHippie She is such a trooper! 🩵💙🩵 3mo

DebinHawaii So glad you are feeling well today! 💜 I‘m at the coffee shop for a bit catching up on reading & cards & relaxing after a busy week. Planning for a mellow weekend. 3mo

DebinHawaii @Cuilin I love David Sedaris! @dabbe I hope Pippa recuperates well! 💜 3mo

dabbe @DebinHawaii She's resting well today. Poor girl takes 24 pills a day to keep her epilepsy in check, and she still has at least one seizure a month. She's a brave girl. 🖤🐾🖤 3mo

AllDebooks @BooksandCoffee4Me ❤️🌸❤️ 3mo

AllDebooks @DebinHawaii I hope you had a restful weekend x 3mo

Right-wing women: the politics of domesticated females | Andrea Dworkin

Looking forward to the Dworkin reissues! (Great covers imo.) I‘ve read 2 of these 3, and had to read them as pdfs 🙃 so we‘re well overdue for the reprint.
