I got some great recommendations a few weeks ago for books on fascism, resistance, & anarchism.
Now I am asking for more recommendations for reading on specifically Black & Native experiences & history in the Americas. Fiction or non-fiction.
I would *highly prefer* works by Black or Indigenous authors.
Please boost! Reach will get me more recommendations!

The Truth About “The Truth About Pussy”
In revisiting a significant moment from 2018, the author reflects on “The Truth About Pussy,” a book initially underestimated due to its title.
