    Resources for wrestling with racism in America

    Let me preface by saying, if this needs to be moved to the politics forum, feel free, but I don't think this should be particularly controversial.

    The news of the past couple weeks has sent me on a deep dive into literature that's helping me confront the realities of white supremacism in this country. I wanted to recommend a few of those books and invite others to share anything that's been helpful to them, either recently or over the years.

    The Fire Next Time, James Baldwin
    Between the World and Me, Ta-Nehisi Coates
    We Were Eight Years in Power, Ta-Nehisi Coates
    White Fragility, Robin DiAngelo
    Why We’re Polarized, Ezra Klein
    Anything Colson Whitehead
    "I never argue with people who say baseball is boring, because baseball is boring. And then, suddenly, it isn't. And that's what makes it great." - Joe Posnanski
