Recs if you like Mutual Aid: Building Solidarity During This Crisis (and the Next)...

Non-fiction books that should make you: Re-contextualize your place in the world. Reassess the framework of your life. Strive to be radically kind. Pursue positive change. Become an anarchist, anit-capitalist, anti-fascist, anti-racist, etc. || My list is very North American centric and I would love global recommendations ||

When you think of Anarchy, you may think of chaos, lawlessness, or just a white dude in a ski-mask tossing molotov cocktails. But that’s not what anarchy is. That’s the propaganda. Anarchy is a political philosophy based in the abolition of the state, in horizontal rather than hierarchical power, in mutual aid, and networks of care. When I learned how much I didn’t know about anarchy it blew my mind. Anarchists have been at the core of so much of modern history, and I want to share it with you.

required reading for learning praxis, fighting fascism & neoliberalism, and embracing protest and uprising against capitalism and violence. not central to the U.S. additionally, includes books on queer politics, disability rights, indigenous fights for landback and much more. now is the time where it is more vital than ever that we sacrifice ourselves for the greater good. get educated folks.

A collection of mostly Non-Fiction books about disability and why it sucks to be disabled in the system. Note: Not all books are about disability, I put a few on this list because I think they would fit in with the idea of the list pretty well 2nd note: I haven't read all books yet Last note: I explained in a comment why I added some books

memoirs, anthologies, graphic novels etc. - anything goes as long as it's nonfiction about the trans & queer experience

History is really just a convenient story if it's the government or a company pushing the narrative. Investigative and alternative perspectives to popular history.
