I’ve read some but will definetly check out the others, thanks!

You should read: Sing, unburied, Sing, by Jasmyn Ward.

I stand with the Master Sergeant!

🙏🫶💪

WOW!

Keep up the good work! May God bless you immensely!!!

"Spook"- good book and movie- I want Spike Lee to do a reboot.

We realllllllllly need this book right now

Time to end this fake presidency. Perp walk that pedophile into a concrete cell and let him sit until he has no breath left. Trump is a criminal evading prosecution for sex crimes against children, treason, sedition and war crimes. The evidence is overwhelming and public knowledge. Act now.

Thank you Sir! I'm proud to say I read one of the books in your list. Thanks for the further reading guide

One of the books I didn't see is, LIES MY TEACHER Told Me

Bookshop.org does a similar thing to libro.fm supporting local booksellers. But use your library! They get funding based on how they are used!

👍

One of my most treasured books.

Mine library isn’t either and they are great to buy the books I request.

Honestly we should colonize these boomer vet groups man. They are endorsing these clown ass politicians who WILL try to fuck us.

We need about 2million more of you.

No Uncle's Tom Cabin? No Roots? Dang, seems like you are just doing propaganda instead of actually promoting good reads. Fuck Trump, but also Fuck biased people.

Look at the oak leaf clusters.....

What is the song?

Going to check these out ✌🏼

Thank you for the recommendations!

I saw a porn movie title BLACKS IN STOCKINGS once

Legitimately can’t tell if your being sarcastic or not But I’ll continue hating on nazi’s and advocating for minorities regardless

One is no longer racist when the system of racism no longer exists, and/or they do not advocate for the construction of the system if it doesn’t exist.

Note: there have been a lot of Bots/Trolls responding to this post with denialism. Denial of reality does not make reality any less real. 👇AND👇 I don’t feed Bots/Trolls

Continuation of the conversation on a different post bsky.app/profile/stra...

Self hating @#$%$!

1-10 is the minimum baseline

First of all, saving this, because I wanna read all of these books now. Secondly, he looks glorious. Especially with that flag and his no bs attitude. That’s what I’m talking about

I have read some of these books. Sometimes scary and real informative. I’ve to go thru this video a few times to write down the books I haven’t read! Or save it, right!😅

I would recommend Dr. Gerald Horne of the Unv of Houston.

Black liberation theologians have worked diligently to embed Marxist thought into the black church since the 1970s. Marxism as a tool of social analysis can disclose the gap between appearance and reality” www.discoverthenetworks.org/other/black-...

Ok. Now do "Dixiecrats"

NO MORE LIES!

👍

Hell yes brother

Also, Thank You for what you are doing!

Thank you for the list. A few of mine, just a regular person, not exceptiona. Everything by Toni Morrison, Dr. King, Malcol, Frederick Douglass. these works changed me.

Thank you! I have a lot of reading to catch up on. I’ve read some of these. Glad to know about more.

Excellent list! I recommend Caste and 1619 to Everyone! Even if they don't usually read political books, I'm like they aren't political, this is just basic civics we should've been taught. I would add Elie Mystal's books. It's also basic civics and constitutional rights and laws we should all know.

Warriors Don't Cry by Melba Pattillo Beals, story of the Little Rock 9, made me so mad I wanted to throw the book numerous times. She brings you inside the fight for desegregation of schools in the south and the sacrifices made to make the "law" a reality.

Thats what a real patriot looks like

I remember campaigning for Dick Gregory as an idealistic teenager, back when the Upper West Side of Manhattan was a real neighborhood.

Awesome reading list. I recommend Half American by Matt Delmont. It delves into how black Americans were integral to the success of WWII. It shines a light on how Nazis actually took inspiration from the American South, and the hypocrisy of white hegemony back home.

A little surprised there was nothing by Malcolm Nance. Still a great list.

Also highly recommend from a "know your enemy" standpoint: "The Reactionary Mind" by Corey Robin-- www.barnesandnoble.com/w/the-reacti...

I've read some. Need to read more.

A recommendation: This Nonviolent Stuff’ll Get You Killed: How Guns Made the Civil Rights Movement Possible — Charles E. Cobb Jr. www.goodreads.com/book/show/18...

One of my kids shoots competitively with a group of LGBTQ ex-military on weekends. Pretty hardcore group that are excellent trainers. Better than the NRA cop-wannabes.

Good list.

"White Rage" for me...

Thank you.

I’m proud to say I’ve read more than half of those !!

Thanks for the reading list! Can I add these, too?

CASTE 🤌🤌🤌 Must read

I had it backwards. Stamped from the Beginning is Kendi, Stamped is Jason Reynolds synthesis for young adult/middle grad (adults should read it too)

Meritorious service medal with oak leaf cluster highest award I think.

Most medals aren’t gold foil imitations. Silver, gum medal grey, even bronze.

A great reading list that all of us who say we care about democracy and the reality of the moment should read and broaden our understanding of this country.

That’s a great book list. I have only read 12 of them - saved your list for my next library run. But I suspect my rural Texas library doesn’t own many of them. Thank goodness for interlibrary loans.

bsky.app/profile/crit... 1957 - The Black Soldiers Who Humiliated The KKK in Monroe, NC

So, here is a man who pays attention.

This one is probably not on anyone’s ‘favorites’ list, but it’s an important, albeit disturbing, book.

Theory suggests descendants of 'Old World' civilizations are more likely to have selected for sexonthewrongbrain.com, which increases fear of uncertainty/authoritarianism, is caused, exacerbated by centuries of increased R-handed masturbation, because of sexual repression, organized religion, etc.

Well this is absolutely fucking awesome.

“Revolutionary Suicide” by Huey Newton is a phenomenal read. One of my favorite non-fiction books of all time.

A nation that dehumanizes Black Americans, people of color, women, children and the vulnerable at large is betraying its own promise. Racism is not a flaw at the margins, it is a threat to democracy itself. Confront prejudice now, or watch it consume the country we claim to love. ☮️

I love this! All great books! 💙Thank you for your service and for standing up.

Black like me was an eye opener. Then I read Malcolm X, and came away with even greater respect for him. And, I was a kid from the50’s, blessed to grow up in Puerto Rico and attend a Methodist school.

You have good taste Master Sargeant!

That's a GREAT list!

Dick Gregory!!!!

🗽

Top tier list--thank you for sharing!!

Thank you for standing up Doing your part.

Know your history

Dont forget this one. Tech bros are evil.

I have read many of these books. Great book list.

You are a true hero in every sense! Thank you for your service.

#JustPlainAwesome

Ah! I bought it from him at an FFRF event. He’s a great writer and a fantastic speaker as well.

Thank you

That's a big list but may I suggest one more, the biography of First Sergeant Mingo Sanders. www.lulu.com/shop/brian-s...

This is cool as hell

Excellent list!

I would add 'Radical Chic & Mau-Mauing the Flak Catchers' & 'Huckleberry Finn' White people shouldn't read that classic aloud anymore but, Twain skewered the nastiness of white racism with shrewd, piercing humor and it is a great read. The staged tragedy with the king and the duke is insuperable.

OP's video keep's not getting slowed. anyone got another source?

“The New Jim Crow"

Jeeez, mine, too!
