Thursday Roundup



Hello all! If you liked today's entry in 50 Books for Problematic Times, please check out the video above, found here. Tomorrow's entry: The Importance of Being Earnest by Oscar Wilde.

I was hoping to inaugurate Tasty Thursday today, but I got distracted by meat-eating and didn't get to finish my feminist cooking manifesto. Next week!

Today's roundup isn't quite as comprehensive as I'd like, but I hope you find some good reading material:

The Angry Black Woman takes on a condescending letter from a scifi writer dismissing the erasure of POC and women from an anthology: This is why science fiction can't have nice things

Tami takes on privilege: What we mean when talk about confronting privilege

The eternally awesome blog Glossed Over summarizes the September Cosmo: The 20 Life-Changing Lessons in September's Cosmopolitan

Renee takes on the Sodini tragedy at Womanist Musings: George Sodini: Misogynist and Racist

My alma mater, Hollins University, made Forbes' list of the top 100 colleges in America.
