pandemic realism
despite collective abandonment and effective propaganda, the pandemic is ongoing. COVID continues to kill and maim people as it spreads unmitigated worldwide. these are books crucial to the study of the public health realities we’re up against as eugenics and fascism escalate - from disability justice to science communication to social movement histories.
How did we get here?

The list is not comprehensive, but I hope it helps people identify the gaps in their own historical education!
