@abolitionbb I started #WeDoThisTilWeFreeUs today. I'm a huge fan of #MariameKaba's work
I also appreciate the incredible lineage that #AngelaDavis has contributed toward the #abolition movement.
I read #ToniMorrison when I was fairly young, so I'm going to have to revisit some of her work. I think the last book I read of hers was #Beloved
I'll have to check out #KuwasiBalagoon.

Curious to know which books and/or organizations shaped your #SocialJustice and #RacialEquity lens
Looking at this book list from https://antiraciststarterpack.com/
The first book I read on #RaceConscious perspectives was #RaceMatters from #CornelWest
I typically recommend #HowToBeAnAntiRacist by #IbramXKendi to folks who are new to learning about #antiracism and #WeDoThisTilWeFreeUs by #MariameKaba for folks who are learning about #CommunityOrganizing with an #abolitionist lens
The orgs I recommend following to learn the basics around social justice issues are #MovementForBlackLives #M4BL #NDNCollective #ShowingUpForRacialJustice #SURJ #CriticalResistance and so many others
