Historia
From intimate relationships to global politics, Sarah Schulman observes a continuum: that inflated accusations of harm are used to avoid accountability. Illuminating the difference between conflict and abuse, Schulman directly addresses our contemporary culture of scapegoating. This deep, brave, and bold work reveals how punishment replaces personal and collective self-criticism, and shows why difference is so often used to justify cruelty and shunning.

Completely enlightening

The outpouring of empathy from the words on the page is truly staggering.
Made me reconsider what it is to be progressive. And gave a profound sense of understanding to why people to bad things to others, and ways this can be stopped.
Will likely shape how I think about others and their experiences, maybe forever.

Still enjoying it
Revisado: 12-22-20
Still early in the story so not a ton has happened yet. We still dont know the mystery of why the king did what he did etc. But there's been some scenes of characters getting to know each other to endear them to the audience.
That's actually my main gripe so far, specifically with Aldin, the main love interest. I just dont know what his "deal" is or why he feels he needs to go on this adventure. I think this was an attempt at making him mysterious, but it's not like getting a small piece of the puzzle and wondering how the rest of him together, but rather we get no puzzle and have to wait to see the puzzle appear at all. we know his powers but not him, and this is kinda crippling to the first real scene of spice between him and the main characters.
You get the "deal" of the other characters, which are all interesting and likable enough for this part of the story so its not a massive systemic issue or anything.

Good prose/great narrator. Interesting start but short. Feel like I need a bit more to really tell where this story is going. Characters get introduced that have little going for them at the moment, so you do need to trust that they will get their time later, that sort of thing. That said, maybe the character introductions themselves could have been stronger, give at least a more memorable impression to start off with? I like the main guy so far though.
The learning curve is a little sharp, lots of expository dialogue and worldbuidling up front in the dialogue. Wasnt a problem for me, but heads up.
There was a bit of a strange decision to skip past a scene near the end of the last episode, which seemes significant enough that it probably could have been it's own chapter. A bit odd.
I liked it so far though and I'm looking into reading/listening to more.
