The Combahee River Collective Statement: Black Feminist Organizing In The Seventies and Eighties
Combahee River Collective

I was initially a bit skeptical because the book started out with this focus on the legality of military operations, which in my opinion is less relevant compared to actual harm caused by them. However by the middle it focused more so on the facts and statistics, and how these policies look in the real life. I appreciated the end where it was pointed out that the Dems hated Bush's foreign policy only to suddenly support the exact same things under Obama (and Obama's own actions directly contradicting what he campaigned on)

I don't know about this one. It feels different than other books in this series, more like an opinion piece than an introduction to a concept.

It’s fucking pierogi, not perogies. There is an “i” not an “e” and it’s already a plural. Probably no one else cares, but it always makes me so mad. Polish not being butchered challenge level: impossible. Do better.

I’m looking to purchase an ereader because I don’t have a lot of physical space and want to use it for books I want to try reading but don’t necessarily want in my physical book collection.
I’ve seen great things about Kobo ereaders. I really don’t want to support Amazon more than I have to, but wanted folks thoughts on kindles as well?

I'm not american and we don't learn much about the Jim Crow era in school. I think I've heard "the birth of a nation" mentioned maybe twice in passing and I'm kinda ashamed of these holes in my historical knowledge. I found this book to be very unique in style and I'll definitely research the references made here later. However, the length of this book left me wanting more. I think some plot points could be fleshed out more with like an additional 100 pages.
