Carissa is 29% done with When They Call You a Terrorist: A Black Lives Matter Memoir
This is just so powerful and moving, and I love listening to the audio particularly because the author narrates her own story.

Carissa
Carissa is on page 66 of 248 of So You Want to Talk About Race
This is really good. Of all the non-fic books I’ve read on race, this is the most to the point and humorous and accessible. Like I feel like I’m just sitting down talking with her. So good.

Carissa is 30% done with Proust and the Squid: The Story and Science of the Reading Brain
Okay this is so cool.

Written knowledge is stored and processed much more efficiently than oral knowledge. Learning to read and write actually frees the human brain to think in more complex ways. 😱
