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.

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.
