For the month of June we read Log Off by Katherine Cross! We discussed our relationship with social media, social media and the revolution, using platforms for organizing and why fandom is not politics.

A little late but we completed We Will Shoot Back by Akinyele Umoja! We discussed lesson's learned with organizing and self-defense, Jimmy apparently discovered that he did read about Mississippi civil rights history, and our lack of knowledge of Nation of Islam.

May - Finish up We Will Shoot Back

June - Log Off Why Posting and Politics (Almost) Never Mix by Katherine Cross

For March, we read On Tyranny by Timothy Snyder. We did...not like this book and why it didn't work for us, the shallow communist history examples, we had an anime corner, and if this book really is for anyone.

For the start of the new year, we read Red Star by Alexander Bogdanov! We discussed if we enjoyed Red Star or Engineer Menni, Bogdanov's view of women, if the book is effective socialist education, and if we would go to a Martian utopia!
