In this weeks podcast, we talked about some pretty amazing women! Jessy will tell you all about the badass gender-bending blues singer Gladys Bentley, and Rebekah will introduce you to Kirsta Scruggs, a serious taste maker in the natural wine world! In lieu of all the usual notes, we are going to share with you some resources for things to read, places to donate and things to watch. We are living through a revolution, friends. Here is an AMAZING reading list by Victoria Alexander (you can find her on Twitter @victoriaalxndr): Anti-Racist Lit: Starter Kit: Stamped From the Beginning, Ibram X. Kendi A People’s History of the United States, Howard Zinn White Fragility: Why it’s so Hard for White People to Talk About Racism, Robin DiAngelo So You Want to Talk About Race, Ijeoma Oluo Anti-Racist Lit: Intermediate Kit The Burning House: Jim Crow and the Making of Modern America, Anders Walker The New Jim Crow: Mass Incareration in the Age of Color Blindness, Michelle Alexander The Condemnation of Blackness, Khalil Gibran Muhammad Dying of Whiteness: How the Politics of Racial Resentment is Killing America’s Heartland, Jonathan M. Metzl A Different Mirror: A History of Multicultural America, Ronald Takaki How to be an Anti Racist, Ibram X. Kendi Anti-Racist Lit: Topic Specifics Evicted: Poverty and Profit in the American City, Matthew Desmond Nobody: Casualties of America’s War on the Vulnerable, from Ferguson to Flint and Beyond: Everything Your American History Textbook got Wrong, Marc Lamont Hill Lies My Teachers Told Me, James W Loewen Why Are All the Black Kids Sitting Together in the Cafeteria?

But, sometimes we miss things! So, here it is! There are protest maps, petitions, places to donate (both with money and with time), a missing people thread, extra resources and more. Honestly, Black Lives Matters has been at this for A MINUTE and has used that time to put together a bunch of resources to make us as useful as we can possibly be. So, check it out, explore the site. As we said: there are so many different roles to be played here and they do not all involve being out on the streets protesting. So find out where you can be most useful. The only mistake you can make is not getting involved, whether that be through conversations with friends, donating money, whatever. Black lives matter.  Stay safe.  Love, Jessy and Rebekah
