Wrapping The Week

Friday, July 19, 2013

The inequalities that minorities and women in this country continue to struggle against seem insurmountable. It is difficult to "keep the faith" so to speak. It has been a rough summer. I have to believe things are going to get better. But I know I have to work for it too. Trying to figure out how to make an impact. To keep my head from not popping off my neck, I've been reading more to help me unwind, get out of my normal spaces. 

Reading this. And just finished The Uncoupling and The Ten Year Nap. New thrift store nearby has decent selection for under a dollar each.  Next, on to some feminist classics that I've never tackled. And Their Eyes Were Watching God.

Women stay in jobs longer than they should. And of the office...we use enough post-it notes to...well...this.

Better than the typical bucket list.

Bogaletch Gebre is an incredible woman.

And for some levity...Don't Pierce The Brat.
