Emma Watson recommended Why I'm No Longer Talking to White People About Race in Books (curated)

"I’m excited to announce that our first book of 2018 is Why I’m No Longer Talking to White People About Race by Reni Eddo-Lodge which talks about the history of racism in Britain, and ways we can see, acknowledge and challenge racism. I am not supposed to have favourites, however this was the most important book for me this year."

Awesome documentary about the work of Jamal Khashoggi. It explores the investigation into his murder, the people he touched, and the spy work involved in tracking him and protecting those involved. In 2018, a number of Republicans were pushing for sanctions which President Trump rejected for economic reasons. Two years later, many of those congressmen sided with Trump in the 2020 Election Controversy.
