#BlackLivesMatter, #TransLivesMatter
from The Real Weird Sisters: The Archive Hosted by Alice Asleson & Martha Krebill
We are taking a break from our regularly scheduled programming this week to respond to current events and unpack our thoughts on the Black Lives Matter movement as well as JK Rowling's transphobic twitter tirade. In the second half of the show, we discuss some YA book recommendations to uplift voices of BIPOC as well as LGBTQ+ people. This is by no means an exhaustive list, just some of our personal favorites. We are not experts, but we want to do what we can with our privilege to be better allies. If you don’t think this show is for you, please consider listening with an open mind. Our regularly scheduled program will resume in a week, but there are more important issues that need to be addressed now. Please consider donating to Equal Justice Initiative at eji.org. We have reached our matching goal at this time but would love to continue raising funds as a Real Weird family for this important cause. Send us a screenshot ([email protected]) if you donate so we can record your contribution.
