Side with Love Book Recommendations
|
As we head into
the end of 2018 -- for some of us, holiday and feasting and loved ones; and
for others of us, work and loneliness and doubt; and for many of us, some of
both -- we are sending love for the justice work we do every day and who we
each are.
We want to share some of the books and songs that have been getting us through - new things that blew our hearts and minds wide open and old ones that still shake us up in the best way. What We’ve Been Reading (in no particular order):
