Welcome to Litsy!

Here's my March #BookSpin #BookSpinBingo list! Many repeats from last month due to many of them intended to complete challenge prompts. I didn't get a bingo in February--I'll post the board when the month's reading is officially wrapped up!

Can I just send you over to @Megabooks review of this one, because it says exactly what I‘m feeling.

Yes, I was uncomfortable listening because I see myself in that title- a progressive white person perpetuating racial harm. I‘ve learned and I strive to keep learning. This isn‘t a thing we can learn once, it‘s ongoing education and we must seek out more ways to be better, all the time.

Excellent book, as is White Fragility. Big recommend.

This was a really great challenging read! DiAngelo calls out a lot of harmful acts that are pretty common. She read the book too which I always like.

I think is even better than White Fragility. Both should be read, but if you only pick one, I think this should be it.

Oof am I guilty of a lot of this progressive white person racism! One of the large points of the book is that racism is never something you‘re done with or over. It is continuous listening(!), dialogue, and improvement of oneself. She points out in the last section that allyship is a verb, not a noun, and I‘d do well to remember that. A really good read. #audiobook
