Let This Radicalize You by Mariame Kaba, Kelly Hayes

5.0

"Regardless of how we choose to grieve or cultivate hope, we know that we are living in disastrous times and that we will need one another. We are wading through hell and high water, tasked with dreaming new worlds into being while the worlds we have known fall down around us. Here, on the edge of everything, the work of cultivating hope and purpose, of anchoring people to one another, is as important now as it has ever been, at any time in human history, because without those efforts, we would be lost in the dark. As James Baldwin emphasized at the close of his book Nothing Personal, "The moment we cease to hold each other, the moment we break faith with one another, the sea engulfs us and the light goes out."
