covers topics such as:

• critical theory
• the far right
• race

Books that expose the history we were never taught. Getting to the root of racism, fascism, colonialism. Working towards a new world while unlearning this one.

Why we need a revolution and how we get there

You cannot be anti-capitalist if you are racist. Racism is the capitalists’ sharpest sword.

No one is free until we all are free.

Focused on America and anti-blackness but touches on other groups as well.

This list is dedicated for all the book recommended and mentioned by Louisa Munch - critical theorist. I follow her Instagram account almost from the very first videos. Louisa inspired me to organise better my political reading and she always gives some nice recommendations to inform yourself about the political landscape of today. I just wanted to have all the books in one place, plus the ones which I found on my own reading journey.

As much as I love the escapism of fiction, here is a collection of non-fiction and essays to pull me back into the real world

To getting myself off my jarring Instagram feed, turning the embarrassment at my own naivety into unjudgemental curiosity by taking agency in what I learn about the world (and lowering my anxious resting heart rate); mix of non-fiction and fiction because sometimes novels depict our current world more accurately than a documentary

Ongoing list! I will try to encompass as much as I can, pls lmk if there are poignant titles to add

An archive of books that have fundamentally shaped my political consciousness and critical understanding of the world.
