Grieving While Black: An Antiracist Take on Oppression and Sorrow by Breeshia Wade

5.0

Studies about the intersections of grief and Blackness through the lens of theology, philosophy, personal life experiences as a queer Black woman, intergenerational trauma, and observations of working in a hospital NICU, amongst others. This book profoundly impacted me, I would HIGHLY recommend it. I'm a white paramedic working in a majority Black city and this should be required reading for all of my coworkers. I get my books almost exclusively from the library but I am specifically planning on buying a copy of this one to keep so I can revisit it in the future.
