Historia4.5 out of 5 stars 4
Waiting in the emergency room at Temple University Hospital in North Philadelphia where his eighteen-year-old nephew, Nasir, lay unconscious after being shot nine times, MK Asante began pouring his heart and soul into a series of letters to a beautiful, dying Black boy so full of life. As Nasir fought for survival, MK realized there was so much—too much—that he had kept from his nephew, starting with the truth about his father, MK’s brother, Uzi, whom Nasir had never met. MK could no longer remain silent because in many ways, his nephew was repeating the mistakes of the past.

Revisado: 03-17-24
This is a stunningly written book. The story and narration are rhythmic, heartbreaking and revealing as much through the said as the unsaid. Read/Listen to this book. It made me more intricately aware of time/context as a rich character woven through out each person's journey. I didn't want it to end. And the truth is...it doesn't. I highly recommend you listen to this with full attention. It was well give back to you more than you can imagine!

The Spirit of Harriet Tubman, who was called the Moses of her people, is rising again, and we can call forth her spirit to embody incredible strength and unwavering courage. Combining direct transmissions of Harriet's message with insightful explorations of her life and legacy, this extraordinary book gives us support and inspiration to deepen our roots of resilience and become powerful conductors of love and truth in our own lives.

In Rooted, cutting-edge science supports a truth that poets, artists, mystics, and earth-based cultures across the world have proclaimed over millennia: Life on this planet is radically interconnected. Our bodies, thoughts, minds, and spirits are affected by the whole of nature, and they affect this whole in return. In this time of crisis, how can we best live upon our imperiled, beloved earth? Award-winning writer Lyanda Lynn Haupt’s highly personal new book is a brilliant invitation to live with the earth in both simple and profound ways.

This is a well written book! Filled with facts and figures wrapped in personal stories that allow us to learn as Kendi learns. The process of practicing and learning is laid bare and we, by Kendi's example, can practice with ourselves. Thank you for this insightful pathway to practicing being an anti-racist!

Phenomenal and Beyond!
Revisado: 01-28-23
Listening to this book was an energetic, somatic and spiritual experience! The complexity of flow of thoughts beckons me to relisten (which I did and will happily do again and again). This book invited me to a practice of integration (which is my experience of sacred texts). The writing and storytelling of Alexis Pauline Gumbs speaks affirmingly to so many remote and marginalized parts of myself! I'm grateful for this spirit-full offering and the clear channeling skills present throughout! This Afro-Futurist lens on all that has occurred, is occurring and will occur is a present...a precious gift I will continue to unwrap for as long as possible!
Deep Gratitude 🙏🏾!

The Earth teems with sights and textures, sounds and vibrations, smells and tastes, electric and magnetic fields. But every kind of animal, including humans, is enclosed within its own unique sensory bubble, perceiving but a tiny sliver of our immense world. In An Immense World, Ed Yong coaxes us beyond the confines of our own senses, allowing us to perceive the skeins of scent, waves of electromagnetism, and pulses of pressure that surround us.

This was a wonderful audio book! It was the perfect compelation of data, ecology, poetry, story and social justice. Ed Yong's voice is soothing and sharp. This book fed my nerdy curiosity while also calling me to practice with this gift/human talent of imagining other umwelts. So rich! Worthy of deep attention! Highly recommended!
