“Books are absolutely crucial in getting us thin “Books are absolutely crucial in getting us thinking about new worlds, other people’s worlds, other people’s realities - because if we don’t have that, we’re stuck in our little bubble.” - Onjali Q. Raúf 📚 #diversifyyourbookshelf
With the Blitz over and London reeling from war, j With the Blitz over and London reeling from war, jazz musician Lawrie Matthews has answered England’s call for help. Fresh off the Empire Windrush, he’s taken a tiny room in south London lodgings, and has fallen in love with the girl next door. 🎷 Touring Soho’s music halls by night, pacing the streets as a postman by day, Lawrie has poured his heart into his new home - and it’s alive with possibility. Until, one morning, he makes a terrible discovery. 🎺 As the local community rallies, fingers of blame are pointed at those who had recently been welcomed with open arms. And, before long, the newest arrivals become the prime suspects in a tragedy which threatens to tear the city apart... 🎷 Atmospheric, poignant and compelling, Louise Hare’s debut novel shows that new arrivals have always been the prime suspects. But, also, that there is always hope. 🎺 #caribbeanheritagemonth #decoloniseyourbookshelf

Race is real because we perceive it, and racism is Race is real because we perceive it, and racism is real because we enact it. But the appeal to science to strengthen racist ideologies is on the rise - and increasingly part of the public discourse on politics, migration, education, sport and intelligence. Stereotypes and myths about race are expressed not just by overt racists, but also by well-intentioned people whose experience and cultural baggage steer them towards views that are not supported by the modern study of human genetics. Even some scientists are uncomfortable expressing opinions deriving from their research where it relates to race. Yet, if understood correctly, science and history can be powerful allies against racism, granting the clearest view of how people actually are, rather than how we judge them to be. 📖 How To Argue With A Racist is a vital manifesto for a twenty-first century understanding of human evolution and variation, and a timely weapon against the misuse of science to justify bigotry. 📖 Posting a black square today is a well meaning gesture, but consider what you want to do next. Think about reading more literature on the subject of race. This book is an excellent place to start. 🖤
