[violetpastille]

I'm reading Climate: A New Story by Charles Eisenstein.

It's kind of like the literary equivalent of muesli. There are a lot of hard bits and occasionally as a treat..a raisin!
It's very healthful, in other words.

4. Winners Take All by Anand Giridharadas

It describes how elites are willing to do good as long as it serves their self-interest; how the thought leaders like to redefine change in “winner-friendly” ways. Yet, they are not willing to stop doing any harm they cause. The book calls for a massive change in the power structure, from the groud up in order to build more egalitarian and robust institutions that work for everyone, not just those at the top; democracy in action.

8. Listening to Tune In

while I work outside. It is book 1 from The Beatles : All These Years. It is over 43 hours long, a real big book! I am enjoying it. Fiction in my wait list.
