Caught up 👍

Updating now! I’ve mostly been into comics and mangas lately (I’ve been binging like crazy 😩) but I’ll get back on my 2020 challenge!

I forgot to update my books 💀

I really like this book so far.

Hey guys! It’s been a while since I updated and that’s partially because I haven’t been doing much reading (which surprised me) but now I’m in higher spirits and will hopefully get back on track. Being sad is no excuse not to read! 🥰 love you people!

Should probably finish my schoolwork rn

I can’t believe one of the characters is actually referred to as Piggy 💀

Let’s see if I use my time wisely reading or just binge anime over spring break😤

20 more books!!! Let’s do this👏👏👏

Beowulf wasn’t playing around with Grendel or his mom... dang

Oh my goodness, did he just defeat Grendel already??? 😮 There’s still a lot of this story left it looks like.

“Blacks remind them that their racial innocence is questionable, that they are the beneficiaries of past and present racism, and the sins of the father(...)”(145).
“And yet young whites tell themselves that they had nothing to do with the oppression of black people” (Steele 145).
“So they end up in the paradoxical position of being hostile to blacks as defending their own racial innocence”(Steele 145).

“So, the white students I met were not just meeting me; they were also meeting the possibility of their own humanity. And, this I think, is what explains how some young white college in the late eighties could so frankly take part in racially insensitive and outright racist acts. They were expected to be cleaner of racism than any other generation- they were born into the Great Society” (Steele).
