First book I've read by him. I'm interested in checking out one of his fiction books in the future

it's not true enough to let down our guards and stop fighting for what's right.

Altruistic reasons. The current administration doesn't care about the world stage and doesn't care about its people. They have no reason to maintain a facade. While the whole time people are under the delusion that it's a different time, people have changed. While that may be true...

The first thing that comes to mind is how he said one of the contributing factors which helped legally end Segregation wasn't kind hearts, but a strategic move on the world stage as Africa was fighting against colonialism. The government unfortunately doesnt just do the right thing for...

Happy birthday to me. I spent the day reading and finished 2 books:
The Fire Next Time by James Baldwin - intriguing and intellectually stimulating read. It would have been incredible to listen to him speak.
And The Serpent & The Wings of Night by Carissa Broadbent - enjoyable fantasy read

Laverne Cox "At the end of the day trans people are less than 1% of the population. Trans people are not the reason you can't afford eggs, we're not the reason you can't afford Healthcare, we're not the reason you can't buy a house, or your rent is too high. I think they're focused on the wrong 1%"

Finally finished onyx storm last night. Reading was sidelined while I chose to listen to music and podcasts to cope with the world.
I have so many questions after finishing...

I'm starting The Fire Next Time by James Baldwin and The Serpent & The Wings of Night by Marissa Broadbent next.
