How to Be an Antiracist by Ibram X. Kendi
Ibram X. Kendi's concept of antiracism reenergizes and reshapes the conversation about racial justice in America--but even more fundamentally, points …
I’m interested in a multitude of things, including social justice, socialism, history, poetry, magical realism (fiction), capitalism, race and class struggle, plus stuff like wine, baseball and music.
So mostly non-fiction, though I read maybe two novels per year and maybe one poetry collection.

A really enlightening read. The author takes the reader through many different types of bias, partly as he described coming to terms with his own bias. He also contrasted racist power, policies and ideas with antiracist power, policies and ideas. A good education, can recommend.
just arrived on my bookshelf.
A very timely read, Unbuild Walls charts the evolution of immigration in the U.S., including ICE and the prison industrial complex on one side and immigration reform and prison abolition activists on the other.
With twenty years of activism, the author describes the injustices she's seen and the steps that have been taken to counter them. Not all succeeded, but many did. It's hard to find a lot of optimism in the current environment we find ourselves in, but the lessons in this book do offer reasons to be encouraged.
Very recommended. Available in multiple formats from Haymarket, which has tons of great titles in their back catalog.

Why, in our affluent society, do so many people live in poverty, without access to health care, working multiple jobs …
In the end, a very worthwhile read which presents good arguments about the cause of the climate crisis (Capitalism) and what must be done to provide a just and equitable society which benefits all. Recommended.
