Here’s one for you sports fans. It was also made into a PBS documentary-in case reading ain’t your thing. I haven’t watched the doc, so not sure how much you would miss, but considering the book is over 480 pages, I would assume some important bits had to be left out.

It’s been a while since we have held an in person seminar but tonight we have one going on! So if your plan is to hike #rimtorim eventually when things get normal like hopefully this fall, this class is for you. .
.
Spaces are limited to 10 and we just had two spaces open up. To register, you will need to go through our MeetUp group- just Roughin it. .
.
The seminar is tonight at 6pm at our store. Face coverings are required and I will try to keep it to one hour due to the curfew.

Today’s book suggestion is an absolute must read by anyone looking for the women’s perspective. Bell hooks analyzes how racism and sexism leads to the treatment of Black women as the lowest members of society. Actually, anything written by @bellhooks_ is a must read.

Kneeling at football games didn’t work. Ask yourselves, will this post? We all need to do more than post a black box. Change starts in every day action and discourse. We hear it often enough just in occasional, unsolicited conversations with some of our customers. (Just had a doozy the other day about China and COVID all because I said something about disrupted distribution channels and yesterday I overheard an older white man telling another older white man working at the store where I was shopping telling him how he would handle these “gang members and protesters” when he was a cop in Chicago). We all need to be better at standing up to and changing dialog. And if that doesn’t work, refusing to serve them. #blackouttuesday #justroughinit

Over the last few days, it’s been challenging to find anything I’d want to post as pretty pictures of the outdoors is highly insignificant at the moment. And I could post quotes or images to show solidarity but what does that do? It’s fleeting and teaches us nothing in the long run (white people quoting Martin Luther King, Jr. will not change the world and is mainly a facade). But knowledge can change the world. I challenge all of you to start educating yourselves in black history, philosophy, sociology, economics, et al so we can all attempt to understand how we got here, why we are still in the place of disdain for the “other” and how many black voices have been speaking out for decades worldwide about their struggles.
.
.
For as long as necessary (which is for as long as I feel like it), I will post a book a day you need to add to your COVID/curfew reading list. .
.
I am an Historian (ABD - anyone in academia will know what that means), so IMO knowledge opens discourse and helps us see through the BS in order to make a change. It allows us to be angry in the face of injustice but also dismiss those whose anger is purely based on ignorance (which is way too common lately).
.
.
All books I will post I have read so if you have any good ones, please list.
