Rest Is Resistance: A Manifesto by Tricia Hersey
2.0
Writing-wise I felt like the book was really repetitive.
Content-wise, I feel there are better (radical and more in-depth) books that expand more on the topics covered in the book and grapple with the reality of workers, capitalism, and colonialism. Just a short list of books that I previously read and feel cover this topic better, I'm sure there are more, still expanding on my reading journey.
Grind Culture: The Myth and Propaganda of Black Buying Power by Jared A. Ball
Dreaming/Imagination: Freedom Dreams: The Black Radical Imagination by Robin D.G. Kelley. For the connection to Sun Ra, Blutopia! The Faggots & Their Friends Between Revolutions for some queer fiction.
Liberation/Colonialism: The Nation on No Map: Black Anarchism and Abolition by William C. Anderson
Care/ Disability/Capitalism: Trans Care, Mutual Aid: Building Solidarity in This Crisis,
On Necrocapitalism: A Plague Journal
I agree with some of the ideas presented, but even with those ideas, they just are not fleshed out in this book or truly connected.
