6 BOOKS THAT CHANGED MY LIFE (During Quarantine) #MinimalistJourney #Nonfiction

Welcome to Slowgazathon 2020 Day #4. These non-fiction books have been tonics for my soul and have helped me feel more in control during the pandemic. If you're on a minimalist journey and a self-fulfillment journey, these picks are for you... even if you're not traditionally into non-fiction (me neither!) there are beautifully written options in here. Great gifts, too. Check your local library first! Thanks for watching!

Shout out to this amazing selection of Black literature that represents stories of black and brown people who are NOT in trauma (particularly lovely selection of books for youths). Check out Niche Book Bar — Black literature on wheels in Milwaukee: https://findyournichemke.com/

∞ HONOR NATIVE LANDS
I acknowledge in Milwaukee that I live and work on traditional Potawatomi, Ho-Chunk and Menominee homeland along the southwest shores of Michigami, North America’s largest system of freshwater lakes, where the Milwaukee, Menominee and Kinnickinnic rivers meet and the people of Wisconsin’s sovereign Anishinaabe, Ho-Chunk, Menominee, Oneida and Mohican nations remain present. https://usdac.us/nativeland

∞ BLACK LIVES MATTER
https://blacklivesmatter.com/
I am taking small but crucial steps on an antiracist journey to reflect on my personal biases, (re)educate myself, and listen to the BIPoC community. This begins with acknowledging my white-adjacent privilege and by stating that I am an ally. I hear you, I see you, I am with you.
