Cobalt Red: How the Blood of the Congo Powers Our Lives by Siddharth Kara

challenging dark emotional informative reflective medium-paced

5.0

This is a crucial book in discussing the horrors occurring in Congo, especially they are not communally known. The pain and the raw emotion written is unbelievably powerful. The author goes into the history of the mining in Congo and the systems that power it.  

A warning: while this is such an important book to read, it discusses a lot of triggering things in detail. If you are unable to read things like that, please be careful when reading it.
