I’m currently reading “Abolition Democracy: Beyond Empire, Prisons, and Torture,” by Angela Davis. If I used a highlighter in this book, about 90% of it would be yellow.

Hey everyone, I’m #newhere. I’m interested in #books, #greeklanguage, #pagan, #poetry, and #wales. Thanks for the invite, @Andrew Pam!

Previously on diasporasocial, which seems to have disappeared without warning. Before that on diasp.eu, which disappeared with plenty of warning. Maybe Glass Wings will stay around a while...!

I can be found, also, on libranet.de (Friendica) and mastodon.sdf.org

Sådär, nu har jag lyssnat klart på Brandi Carlisles bok Broken Horses. Tror det var @LeoR1010 och en bekant i Australien som tipsade om den. Mycket bra, får 5/5 av mig. Plus med ljudboken är att det är hon själv som
läser och dessutom sjunger massor. Alla låtar finns sen även som ett avslutskapitel med bara musik. Rekommenderas varmt!

Tror jag ska lyssna på ytterligare en bok jag läst efter det, Cast me Gently av Caren J. Werlinger. Allt jag läst av henne har varit riktigt bra. goodreads.com/book/show/252916…

Mary Wollstonecraft, The Woman Who Laid the Foundation for Feminism

"Think 18th-century feminism must be outdated? Think again—there is still so much to learn from the life and writing of Mary Wollstonecraft."

I highly recommend Cast Me Gently by Caren J. Werlinger. If you are in need of a feelgood read, maybe Heart Trouble by Jae could be for you. Both definitely worth a read.
