the sexual politics of meat. it's kind of about the correlation between feminism and vegetarianism/veganism. "It looks at how patriarchal society treats women and nonhuman animals as objects and how if one wants to overturn patriarchy, one must give up meat because it is part of patriarchal power." thank you for the recs!
For books with similar vibes, I'd recommend Don't Touch My Hair by Emma Dabiri (US edition called Twisted: The Tangled History of Black Hair Culture), Exile and Pride: Disability, Queerness, and Liberation by Eli Clare, and Care Work: Dreaming Disability Justice by Leah Lakshmi Piepzna-Samarasinha
I get THE best recommendations from your videos, i’ve been binging them and i appreciate your reviews and what you recommend so much. The variety of genre and the genre you read in general i feel have been hard to find around booktube, since there is so much YA and romance content i love what you present
Love that this one seems to be gaining popularity lately, (idk if it’s just me but I’m seeing it talked about everywhere this year!) it’s one of my favorites.
This is such an impressive assortment of culturally relevant topics. I love reading nonfiction am subscribing to your channel. You did such an good job summarizing and I will likely get into Braiding Sweetgrass. Thank you for sharing.
Great video, I knew that it would be amazing when I clicked on it (I enjoy all of your videos). I read The Autobiography of Malcolm X at the beggining of the year and it just changed me forever. I also read 2 out of the 3 Angela Davis books and now I want to get the third one. Anyways all really good recommendations, thank you! (Special mention to the THE HAIR!! The cut, the color, the styling! Amazing, I had to tell you xoxoxo)
I love love love when you do your nonfiction rec videos. The books you speak about are always so encompassing and inclusive on various topics and levels. And I'm always here for it. Braiding Sweetgrass is a book I've had on my TBR for some time now. I really should get on that. Thank you for your recs and thoughts on them. 😊
i just discovered your channel and just based off of the thumbnails, video titles and the books shown, i just know your taste will fit so much of mine. im so excited
thanks for this great list. Some of these books (ex. braiding sweetgrass) don't really enter my field of vision since i live in europe. so thanks for the introduction!
Sunny you are amazing!🔥 some of the social change books I checked out in your previous videos really changed my life and I'm excited to read some of the ones here.
Thanks for sharing that list with us! I heard about most of these books, so it's nice to see them in one place ✨ I read braiding sweetgrass in March so I guess I know now which climate book I'm going to choose next (if my library has it) :D Also I love it when you say 'free online' because some of those text are really not something a 'small' German library has :') The bible commentary book sound really interesting, thanks for bringing it to my attention 💖
oooh i’m surprised to see you recommending a people’s history of the united states! we had to read a lot of chapters out of it in my US history class. maybe i should give it a read all the way through 🤔
For people that speculate about climate change due to religion, Saving Us by Katherine Hayhoe is a must read. Hayhoe is a climate scientist and evangelical Christian. She speakers to climate deniers in a very powerful way.
Check out “Anarchism & the Black Revolution” by Lorenzo Kom’Boa Ervin and “The Nation On No Map” by William C. Anderson for some Black radical critiques of Leninism and state-oriented socialism !
Definitely checking some of these out! Here are two recs: A Taste for Brown Sugar by Mireille Miller-Young and Afropessimism by Frank B. Wilderson III. I think you would find them interesting reads
I'd love another video Sunny, I think you're channel is amazing. I'm only 16 and was wondering if you have any socialist book recommendations for beginners that won't be too hard to understand. I've read many works of Angela Davis, how we get free, sister outsider, feminism interupted and the fear of the black body. But I was wondering what you would say are the essential socialist books. Thanks 😊
I love this series. The best non-fiction I read this year was Caste: The Origins of Our Discontent. I happened to be reading it at the same time the major race cases from the supreme court were being discussed in my constitutional law class. It was difficult for my mental health but so worth reading those together.
That is how i used to think, when i came across books on Black American experience. But i still went ahead and read, and guess what..? iI was fucking relevant despite me not being an American nor a black individual. I now have stopped being an arse and read whatever.

TH-cam and websites are mostly filled with fiction recommendations. But your video popped up on my TH-cam feed just at the right time.
ooooh thank you !!! just last night i was looking for non-fics to read because i want to get into it

As soon as I saw braiding sweetgrass and fearing the black body on there, I knew I had to watch this video!
Great list! And that eye makeup looks so good

The bible commentary book sound really interesting, thanks for bringing it to my attention 💖

Thank you for the suggestions. I highly enjoyed Minor Feelings when I read it and it made me have to think deeply about my own connections to race.
ahh yes i love so many of these books! definitely adding the rest to my tbr
oooh i’m surprised to see you recommending a people’s history of the united states! we had to read a lot of chapters out of it in my US history class. maybe i should give it a read all the way through 🤔
LOVE THIS VIDEO SO MUCH if you liked the angela davis one about imprisonment you should defs read the new jim crow by michelle alexander

Adding so many of these to my TBR

Give Naomi Klein a go! My favorite leftist author is Murray Bookchin but some of his books are really Big Brain Energy lol
Are Prisons Obsolete is one of the reasons I'm in law school.
Looooooooooove Braiding Sweetgrass.
I'd recommend What it means to be human by Joanna Bourke.
Thanks ❤
howard zinn one should be canon
New Subscriber. Glad found your channel

Are you Mongolian?
♥︎♡♡♡♡♡
Not being american, none of these books is relevant to me.
?
That is how i used to think, when i came across books on Black American experience. But i still went ahead and read, and guess what..? iI was fucking relevant despite me not being an American nor a black individual.
I now have stopped being an arse and read whatever.
