Also let me recommend historian Annette Gordon Reed’s “On Juneteenth” for your summer reading list. I felt vindicated reading that Reed, a Texan, always saw Juneteenth as a Texas celebration. Her dive into the complicated history of Texas, slavery, integration & this holiday is riveting.

finally reading this beautiful book - "we constructed a house from static language centered on privileged experiences, and then we applied some cheap siding in the form of hastily thrown-together workarounds and inclusion committees. now we wonder why no one wants to move in and stay."

Thoroughly enjoying reading my fresh new copy of The House Archives Built & Other Thoughts on Black Archivam Possibilities, written by @dorothyjberry.bsky.social and published by @wehere.bsky.social. Immediate classic!

Photo of the paperback volume The House Archives Built & Other Thoughts on Black Archival Possibilities by Dorothy Berry. It features an assemblage of older black and white photographs of African American families on the top half of the cover, and black text upon a sea green background on the lower half.
