Hi, everyone! Because S&W is recorded in advance and only releases every other week, we often don't get to comment on current events. However, we wanted to take just a couple minutes to discuss the events unfolding in the United States (and all over the world). In addition to our Instagram post with donation information and book recommendations, here are a couple more educational resources to check out:

1. "White Privilege: Unpacking the Invisible Knapsack" by Peggy McIntosh: A great introductory read for those struggling with the concept of white privilege. https://www.racialequitytools.org/resourcefiles/mcintosh.pdf

2. Stylist's list of "Best podcasts about race in the UK & USA": https://www.stylist.co.uk/life/best-podcasts-about-racism-race-black-history/395541

3. Time Magazine's recommendations for books about race and racial injustice: https://time.com/5846732/books-to-read-about-anti-racism/

4. Aljazeera's interactive map of US police killings of Black Americans: https://www.aljazeera.com/indepth/interactive/2020/05/mapping-police-killings-black-americans-200531105741757.html

We see you. We stand with you. We will keep listening and learning.
