Ta-Nehisi Coates at SAL 2/18: "If you can stand by and ship 2k lb bombs to be dropped on hospitals…know people are being kidnapped and taken into prisons and raped and tortured…if you can't stand up against genocide, why should I believe you can stand up for democracy?" #booksky #coates #palestine

You’ve read the eerie parallels between “Parable of the Sower” and recent events—but isn’t the film “Don’t Look Up” starting to feel just as real? #booksky #filmsky #ParableoftheSower

“What a great book rec!” is the best compliment. Instantly makes me feel like 💁🏽‍♀️💜 For reference, here’s the visual👇🏽 #booksky #bookrec #litsky

“Sugarcane” 10/10 Julian (co-director) is the first Indigenous North American filmmaker to be nominated for an Academy Award in any category—breaking a 90+ year barrier. A courageous but necessary undertaking. The kind of impact all documentaries should strive for. #filmsky #booksky #Sugarcane

“Every small act of resistance trains the muscle used to do it” 💥 “To walk away from this system is to speak the only language the system will ever understand” ✊🏽 Omar El Akkad’s “One Day, Everyone Will Have Always Been Against This” has a prime spot on our shelf 📚 #booksky #OmarElAkkad #bookquotes

“The greatest genre” - @staceyabrams.com 💕🥰🌹 #booksky #romancebooks

Exhibit A

I thought I only bought necessities at Target, but boycotting them has saved me $$$ and showed me how much less is truly essential—while deepening my sense of community, aligning with my family’s values, and revealing the real power of my money. #TargetBoycott #EconomicPower #IntentionalLiving

Poll: Which wait is more agonizing? 1️⃣ A highly anticipated book release 📖 2️⃣ A new Severance episode drop 🫠 Right now, it’s #2 for us. Severance is next-level storytelling—we need more ASAP 😩 @benstiller.redhour.com #Booksky #Severance #Lumon

On repeat: We need our firsthand, collective record of the present—to counter the rewriting of history. They’re not pulling the rug all at once—it’s a slow-motion coup, making the fall gradual and tolerable. Document the truth and wield it as resistance. Journal. Every. Day. 📣 #coup #booksky

Call it what it is 💯 The American Bar Association (ABA) all but called it a coup: “No American can be proud of a govt that carries out change in this way. Neither can these actions be rationalized by discussion of past grievances or appeals to efficiency.” #Coup #QuietCoup #Cooked #ABA

FEBRUARY 28, 2025 – NATIONAL ECONOMIC BLACKOUT DAY They profit off our debt, energy, and spending—until we sever their lifeline and reclaim ours. ONE day. No spending. No compliance. The many moving as ONE. ✊🏽 Money talks, but so does stillness. The collective can disrupt! 🚨 REPOST 🚨 #Blackout

A brilliant woman—currently overlooked, undervalued, and facing systemic obstacles to her success—could be the key to saving us from the possible asteroid collision in 2032. However, with 🍊 in office for at least 4 of those 7 years, all our hope rests on the low 2.3% chance of occurrence. #asteroid

If it wasn’t clear we’re yearning for substance, let Kendrick’s performance prove it—it was ART, not mere entertainment, we were after. Maybe that’s why Super Bowl LVIIII shattered last year’s record for the biggest American TV audience since the moon landing: >133.5 million viewers. #NotLikeUs 🇺🇸🏈✊🏽

I’m a product of the public school system—I was underserved, became a teenage mom, and it took me far too long to earn my B.A. 😮‍💨 The system isn’t built to empower Black, Brown, or low-income kids. This book explores what public schools are really designed to do-and it's not equal access. #booksky

#BookRec “…a terrible thing is happening to you now. You are being asked to kill off a part of you that would otherwise scream in opposition to injustice. You are being asked to dismantle the machinery of a functioning conscience.” #BookSky #OmarElAkkad #OneDayEveryoneWillHaveAlwaysBeenAgainstThis

A bestseller! You did that! "Mr. President…the people who pick our crops and clean our office buildings; who labor in meat packing plants; who wash the dishes after we eat in restaurants…they may not be citizens but the vast majority of immigrants…pay taxes and are good neighbors.” #booksky #brave

One of 2025’s best books—“One Day, Everyone Will Have Always Been Against This”—is as necessary as it is incisive. A memoir-manifesto that delivers a visceral, unflinching confrontation with the West’s routinely broken promises. This might be the first book to define this moment in time. #BookSky ✊🏽📖

Is it too early to name one of 2025’s best books? #booksky #bestbooksof2025

POLL: If you started a book in 2024 but finished it in 2025, which year does it count toward? 🧐 #booksky📚💙 #bookcount

My 1st social media account was MySpace 👵🏽 2nd was FB—stay with me… FB is required for a business IG, which we use to promote our bookstore, but… Integrity > Meta, so we’re leaving FB—risk and all—to be part of a necessary shift. Let’s be the change we need ✊🏽 Help us grow here 🫶🏽 #booksky #community

Less of a #WritingPrompt —more like a plea: Journal. Broadly!✍️📝 We need a firsthand, collective record of now to counterbalance the real-time rewriting of history—before today’s events fade into memories of memories ⏳ Not telling you what to do, but if ever there was a time to repost…🗣️👀 #Booksky📚💙

Tell me you were published before #FreeLuigiMangione without telling me you were published before Free Luigi Mangione! 🗣️ Quote from the book, “A Certain Hunger”: “Kill one man and you're an oddity. Kill a few and you're a legend.” 👀😬 Anyway, this book is 🔥 #booksky @chelseagsummers.bsky.social

Hey #booksky 📣 #Doechii won Best Rap Album! (Only 3rd woman to do so) Congrats! 🙌🏽 How is that bookish? Give her lyrics a listen—authentic to the infinity power, phenomenal, poetic and wildly imaginative. Artistry of that magnitude lives in the same realm as lit 💙📚 #blackhistorymonth #grammys
