Episode 84: Book Talk: Pride Month - Let's Change the Default

Black Lives Matter. Black Stories Matter. Share them. Say their names. Don’t let them be silenced. Resources   Advancement Project’s List of Organizations Bookshop’s Antiracist Reading Recs Henry Louis Gates, Jr. spotlights the last 50 years of African-American history in “Black America Since MLK: And Still I Rise” now streaming in full for free online  Guide to Ally-ship: read the short guide here 10 Steps to Non-Optical Allyship: on Instagram An anti-racist reading list from Ibram X Kendi  List of Black-Owned bookstores in the U.S.  The Conscious Kid : A resource to help educate children on racial bias and promoting positive identity development I have No Mouth, and I Must Scream: The Duty of the Black Writer During Times of American Unrest by Tochi Onyebuchi Ibram X Kendi on why not being racist is not enough  Accounts to Follow on Social Media   The Conscious Kid on Instagram Spinesvines on Instagram The Stacks Podcast on Instagram  Diverse Spines on Instagram  Bowties and Books on Instagram   Where to Donate  Black Live Matter: donate here Campaign Zero: donate here The Bail Project: donate here   Podcasts/Podcast Episodes  Code Switch Podcast: hosted by journalists of color, the podcast tackles the subject of race head-on.  Deadline City Podcast: hosted by authors Dhonielle Clayton &amp; Zoraida Cordova who talk about the publishing industry and their writing journeys. First Draft Podcast’s interview with Jason Reynolds, discusses his book LOOK BOTH WAYS, his childhood growing up in DC, his writing career, and more. The Stacks Podcast interview with R. Eric Thomas, author of HERE FOR IT, a collection of humorous and thoughtful essays centering around his identities of Black, Christian, Gay, and American. The Reading Women’s interview with Kiley Reid, author of SUCH A FUN AGE.   Black Stories on Youtube  Let’s Talk About Race: Nic Stone &amp; Jodi Picoult Amber Ruffin’s Experience with Police on Late Night with Seth Meyers This is My Story - The FBE Cast Untold Story of Black Suffragettes  Tara’s Book Rec Sister Outsider - on Goodreads and Bookshop Audre Lourde is a legend. When I read Sister Outsider for the first time a few years ago I felt empowered, I felt rage, I felt sickened - I cried a number of times. Ultimately, it’s a plea for hope and change.  Why I picked it? A stunning number of my friends on Goodreads have not read this book. It’s older, but I   think it’s just as important now as when it was published.  Meredith’s Book Rec Dear Martin on Goodreads and Bookshop  This book might be short, but its impact is huge as it tackles racial discrimination, police brutality, and the inequality in the American school system.  Why I picked it? This is one of those books that sticks with you. I ugly cried during portions of it, but was still left with hope at the end. It’s also a great time to read it because Nic Stone is publishing a sequel called DEAR JUSTYCE in September 2020 that deals with the very real issues facing Black boys and other minorities in the American justice system. Jeannette’s Book Rec All American Boys on Goodreads and Bookshop Told from the two perspectives of Rashad and Quinn, this book explores the idea of police brutality and the trauma and impact it has on the victim and their community, but it also shows a white teen dealing with his privilege and what his responsibility is as someone who knows the truth behind the incident. Why I picked it? This book is so powerful in the way it handles real issues of discrimination and privilege.  It made me think, it made me cry, and it has never really left me. Non-Fiction Book Recs  March on Goodreads and Bookshop How to be An Antiracist on Goodreads and Bookshop  So You Want to Talk About Race on Goodreads and Bookshop The New Jim Crow: Mass Incarceration in the Age of Colorblindness on Goodreads and Bookshop Heavy: An American Memoir on Goodreads and Bookshop White Fragility: Why it’s so Hard for White People to Talk About Racism on Goodreads and Bookshop Just Mercy:A Story of Justice and Redemption on Goodreads and Bookshop Stamped from the Beginning: The Definitive History of Racist Ideas in America on Goodreads and Bookshop Stamped: Racism, Antiracism, and You on Goodreads and Bookshop Here For It: Or, How to Save Your Soul in America; Essays on Goodreads and Bookshop I Know Why the Caged Birds Sings on Goodreads and Bookshop The Fire Next Time on Goodreads and Bookshop Between the World and Me on Goodreads and Bookshop Sister Outsider on Goodreads and Bookshop Becoming on Goodreads and Bookshop Brown Girl Dreaming on Goodreads and Bookshop Born a Crime: Stories From a South African Childhood on Goodreads and Bookshop  Fiction Book Recs  The Hate U Give on Goodreads and Bookshop The Fifth Season on Goodreads and Bookshop Kindred on Goodreads and Bookshop Homegoing on Goodreads and Bookshop Invisible Man on Goodreads and Bookshop The Underground Railroad on Goodreads and Bookshop The Nickel Boys on Goodreads and Bookshop Long Way Down on Goodreads and Bookshop The Belles on Goodreads and Bookshop A Phoenix First Must Burn on Goodreads and Bookshop All American Boys on Goodreads and Bookshop Dear Martin on Goodreads and Bookshop American Street on Goodreads and Bookshop Pride on Goodreads and Bookshop Slay on Goodreads and Bookshop You Should See Me in a Crown on Goodreads and Bookshop Felix Ever After on Goodreads and Bookshop The Wedding Date on Goodreads and Bookshop Riot Baby on Goodreads and Bookshop The Bluest Eye on Goodreads and Bookshop Their Eyes Were Watching God on Goodreads and Bookshop

Episode 81: Book Talk: Book Recs for Extraterrestrial Life

Starting in 2020, we're now releasing two episodes a month! The first episode releases on the 15th and is a chat of what we're currently reading and a general bookish discussion topic. The 2nd episode releases on the 30th and is our monthly book club discussion. We announce the following month's book pick at the end of the episode so you can read along with us. (Our older episodes follow this same format, but were combined into one longer episode a month.)   We also have special author interview episodes sprinkled throughout the year, so make sure to subscribe in your favorite podcast app so you never miss out! If you'd like join in on the bookish discussion through social media, our hashtag is #EclecticReaders and you can find us at:Twitter: @EclecticReadPod Litsy: @EclecticReadersInstagram: @EclecticReaders Goodreads: Eclectic ReadersThe History of Eclectic Readers The Eclectic Readers started in 2009 as an IRL book club. In 2015, four of us in the book club thought we'd give podcasting a try and have been going strong ever since! In each monthly book club episode, we base our book choice on that month's IRL book club pick.

Very sad to come on and hear a podcast on books and for them to sound so lackluster.

They sound bored

Wonderful podcast for book lovers. Delightful and addicting!
