Last book of February: finished up Surviving The White Gaze by @rebel19.bsky.social. So good!! Highly recommend if you’re into memoirs, especially those about race and family.

Monthly bookmail from @haymarketbooks.org is here!!! Because I can't finish one of their books without 3 more landing on my TBR 😅
Picture of the book I know what the red clay looks like; the voice and vision of black women writers by Rebecca Carroll, expanded and revised version. The cover image is of a leaf like red pattern on a black background with the title over it in a neon yellow/green color. The book is on an open cardboard mailer

Also I would like to ruin the lives of the racists so my children see they were loved by people who would do anything to protect them.

Honestly, this obsession over bathrooms and who gets to use them is just so dumb. Flush the toilet, wash your hands, and keep it pushing.

This is a wierd take to me. America was founded on hate, misinformation, misogyny and racism. America actually won. Human decency lost.

I wrote a memoir called Surviving the White Gaze—about surviving the white gaze as a Black transracial adoptee raised in a white family and all white town. But also about surviving the broader white gaze default that is America. Recharged poignancy post Nov 4.
