Our bookshelf of late, with Lisa Olivera, Rev. Cynthia Kear, Stephen Jenkinson Nadia Narain, Amy Kurtz, Erica Bassani and Rosemerry Wahtola Trommer.

Aching for the lands burning, the friends struggling.

Celebrating the glimmers of safety, care and love.

Reading as an act of revolution, resistance, activism.

Our bookshelf for today:

Alive for It All, by Cynthia Kear
Trembling, Still by Stephen Jenkinson
Glimmers, by Nadia Narain and katia phillips
But You Look Fine, by Amy Kurtz

even now, by Rosemerry Wahtola Trommer and Jill Sabella

With great thanks to Patricia Russo, Maia Duerr, Florence Acosta, seamus gilkey, Carla Kraft, Henriette Kalgraff, Melissa Berry Appleton and 100+ others for tuning in. James and I are moved to continue working and offering our experience together.
