Eloquent Rage||Brittney Cooper||⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ • • When it comes to Black feminism, this book proves Dr. Brittney Cooper is the smartest person in the room. Cooper is consistent and relentless with centering Black women and her depth of knowledge is our guide. • • Reading this book I felt seen and that I understood my own journey as a Black woman better. Cooper distills complex ideas down so her audience can fully grasp her points. She moved between theory and Beyoncé with ease. • • I listened to this book, and even that strikes a great balance between academic and casual. Check out this book if you’re interested in intersectional (Black) feminism. • • What’s your favorite book about feminism? • • Full review on blog. Link in bio. #thestacksreview One of my favorite parts of traveling is seeing the local independent bookstores. I just loved @chopsueybooks. It’s full of new and used books, with a super knowledgeable staff, and a great selection. If you’re ever in Richmond check it out. • • I love a diverse classics, what’s your go to section in the bookstore? ✨✨✨GIVEAWAY✨✨✨ • • To celebrate 3K followers, and to thank all of you for making my reading life even more enjoyable, I’m giving away books. To stay true to myself, they’re all nonfiction books. • • One winner will pick one of the books above. The stack is some of my most favorite nonfiction books ever. You can’t go wrong. • • To enter: 1. You must be following @thestackspod 2. Comment with which book you’d want and in the same comment, tag 3 friends. You can get a bonus entry if you share this post in your stories and tag me. • • Giveaway ends 11:59pm PST on Thursday 10.25. Must be over 18 & book depository must ship to your country. This is not affiliated with anyone. #giveaway Packing way too many books for a little cross country trip. • • So excited to be going to Virginia for the Virginia Literary Arts Awards hosted by @libraryofva. Then NYC to visit my old college friends. • • What do you have planned this weekend? What will you be reading? Meet Harris Cohn, he works in renewable energy by day and is a political activist by night (and weekends). He comes on the show to talk about getting involved in elections, his time on the Obama campaign, and his love of Roald Dahl. • • Who was your favorite author as a child? • • Check out our conversation with Harris through the link in bio. #thestacks With all the conversations about diversity on #bookstagram, I was asked by @words.between.worlds to share why I read books by authors of color. I came up with a few, even though you don’t need a reason. • • Mostly I’d say that while I do read authors of color to challenge narratives presented by White folks, I also read authors of color without any relationship to White people. These books and authors exist in their own right, and the books are amazing, and terrible, and overlooked, and award winning, and those are all reasons enough. • • I put together a list of 21 reasons I read authors of color, and for each reason I give a book that exemplifies the reason. You can see that full list on the blog (link in bio). • • Why do you read authors of color? What’s a favorite book by an author of color?
