Bread Is the Devil: Win the Weight Loss Battle by Taking Control of Your Diet Demons by Heather Bauer and Kathy Matthews
So this is the “bread book” anarchists keep telling me to read
I would love to re-read fanon, and I think it’s very relevant to the situation in west Africa being what it is right now
No, this is the Marxist-Leninst response to it (as far as I understand)
Hannah Arendt – The Origins of Totalitarianism
My recs are:
Walter Rodney - Decolonial Marxism

The new double issue of Monthly Review on degrowth
Andreas Malm - Corona, Climate and Constant Emergency: War Communism in the 21st Century
David Hilliard - The Black Panther Party Service to the People Programs
George Jackson - Blood in my EyeI would also be interested in rereading Wretched of the Earth
