I am currently enjoying The Cold Dish by Craig Johnson, the first book in the Walt Longmire series! The tv show is great, but per usual, the books are better!!!

the new jim crow: mass incarceration in the age of colorblindness by michelle alexander. i might have posted about it in here before...i started and stopped it in july and i'm picking it back up

i agree with a lot of the criticism that exists about the book that she ignores much of black history and the larger context of colonialism, capitalism, eurocentrism and white supremacy. but i do think the book is really good and needed because there are so few really accessible analyses in existence about these issues. i hope her book, along with the growing body of work on transformative justice by other writers, will pave the way for more.

i'm also beginning beyond inclusion, beyond empowerment: a developmental strategy to liberate everyone by leticia nieto. i've heard really good things about it and i have a feeling it's going to be one of those you have to read several times

I have set aside all of the other books I've been reading from lately and pulled a book out from back in the day when I took this college class: Greek Tragedy Studies.

I'm turning pages in this book:

Euben, J. P. (1990). The Tragedy of Political Theory: The Road Not Taken. Princeton, NJ: Princeton University Press.

The third book in the 50 shades of Grey trilogy...Not too proud about this, but it is mindless and I really love not having to think too much...

One of the books I am currently reading, is a brilliant piece of fiction, titled The Brief History of the Dead, by Kevin Brockmeier.
