Nonfiction November 2023 continues with Week 4: Worldview Shapers, which I am proud to host!

Cave Of Bones Is Irresponsible For So Many Reasons

Cave Of Bones Is Irresponsible For So Many Reasons

Author’s Note: It feels odd to be putting out a post right now that, while important, feels relatively trivial compared to what is going on in Palestine right now. There is a US-sponsored genocide occurring as I write this. Both the United States and Israel want you to think the “situation” is “too complicated” for you to condemn genocide and apartheid. It is not. Please take the time to learn about the history of Israel and its violent colonization of Palestine. I hope to have blog posts sharing what I learn in these books—some of which are free right now—up in the near future and as a continual part of my blog.

Free Palestine. 🇵🇸
