This book excels in the quiet moments after you read a headline and click through, nauseous. You need a moment; you need to remember that you are not alone in your shock, in your plans to act.

Consuming media written from a paradigm that isn’t our own increases our empathy, and consuming dense or difficult media is like lifting weights for our brains. We must start directing that reading list to grapple with our current political climate.
