This week Rina read
This week Rina read: If Beale Street Could Talk by James Baldwin. I have been on a James Baldwin kick recently. Its so good to re-read things and I am loving being reminded of how much of a genius James Baldwin was!
This week’s inspiration
This week’s inspiration is whoever made these genius stickers for you to print out and stick on the U-bahn and supermarkets like Rewe to raise awareness about the atrocities in Gaza. Print some out! Disrupt! Let the streets speak!
