There are a multitude of ways to support the Black Lives Matter movement, but—arguably—none will be as effective as educating ourselves on the topic.
To that intent, we've gathered a few reading lists offered on Instagram by a variety of Black women who run radical literary accounts, are literary professors and/or host podcasts exploring the subject of racism. Because who better than them to tell us what to delve into to truly understand the scope, vision and intent of the movement?
We suggest adding all these titles to your reading list and, perhaps, ordering them from Black-owned bookstores. Here is a map of over 60 of them throughout North America.
Without further ado, here is your summer reading material.
