Dear Martin and its follow-up Dear Justyce: These are both amazing, eye-opening, and heartbreaking. Both depict the social injustices that people of color (in particular, males) are faced with every.single.day. No matter what. I finished these and immediately shared with my cousin. #socialjustice #socialinjustice #nicstone #yareads #blacklivesmatter #checkyourprivilege
So many Aboriginal languages lost 😢. My son is Noongar (Aboriginal person from south Western Australia). He knows 50 - 100 words. We wanted him to learn more. A wadjella (white fella) academic who‘d catalogued the language wanted payment to teach it to him.
Grrrr...wadjellas invade this country and decimate its first people so the language is lost & then want to charge Aboriginal people to get it back?! 😡😡😡

My concentration is crap due to my obsessive need to check the news every 5 minutes to make sure the world isn't ending. This book has been a nice and interesting distraction. It's taking me forever to get through because of my anxiety over the current political climate but it is really good. #checkyourprivilege
