Read & Listen: Democracy Resources We Recommend
As the federal administration threatens our democracy and tries to divide us, this moment calls for us to fight relentlessly for our rights.
We know that keeping up the fight while we're flooded with upsetting news, disinformation, and feelings of pessimism is exhausting. We can only be effective activists if we're also taking care of ourselves— by seeking out accurate information, fresh and knowledgeable perspectives, and ways to connect with joy and hope.
We urge you to continue reading, learning, and fortifying yourself for the work ahead, so we’ve put together this collection of suggested readings and playlists that encourage and fuel us. We hope they do the same for you.
