(2/2) Finally read this banger. Chapters 2 & 4 were on the additional course readings list for the CLR James seminar, but I decided to push through the whole thing since it was short enough & such a seminal revolutionary text.

(1/2) Oops. Just completely forgot to post about the last two books I read lol. Been completely swept up in the new school year!

My last read of the summer. I figured it was short enough to squeeze in before school started & would be nice to knock out before I started the September seminar on CLR James that I‘m taking with the Brooklyn Institute for Social Research! 🙂

bibliothecarivs What did you think? I haven't read it. 2mo
breadnroses @bibliothecarivs Anything by James is worth a read. The introduction by Robin DG Kelley is essential! 2mo

“. . . The capitalist who employs improved but not yet universally used methods of production sells below the market price, but above his individual price of production; his profit rate thus rises, until competition cancels this out; in the course of this period of adjustment, the second requirement is fulfilled, i.e. growth in the capital laid out . . .”

#TLT #ThreeListThursday @dabbe
Had to jump in for this one (but couldn‘t quite narrow it down to three 😆)
1. Tagged
2. Brain on Fire: My Month of Madness by Susannah Cahalan
3. The Disaster Artist: My Life Inside The Room, the Greatest Bad Movie Ever Made by Greg Sestero and Tom Bissell
4. The Argonauts by Maggie Nelson
5. Between Two Kingdoms: A Memoir of a Life Interrupted by Suleika Jaouad

Apparently I really like memoirs 📚

monalyisha I‘ve been intending to read the last two on your list for so long! I even bought # 5 for a friend (who has been dealing with her own traumatic medical mystery for over a year now). 8mo
shortsarahrose @monalyisha of all the ones on the list, those two are the ones I‘ve been most meaning to reread. I really related to Sulieka‘s memoir because we both got sick around the same age (her with cancer, me with Crohn‘s), and been changed by the experience even after getting into remission. We also both relapsed around the same time (I follow her Substack and have been meaning to watch the doc American Symphony with her and her spouse but known I‘ll 😭) 8mo
monalyisha I also subscribed to her substack for a while! I was hoping it would give me the kick I needed to actually write & journal more. Instead, I just guiltily buried the emails in my overfull inbox without even opening them, so I unsubscribed. It seemed really cool, though! 8mo
shortsarahrose @monalyisha yeah, I never actually do the journaling prompts. I just like reading them, though 🤷🏻‍♀️ 8mo
dabbe Even more to explore! Thanks for sharing. 💚💙💚 8mo

And I meant it. Great history of critical race theory and biographies into it's creators and influencers.
