Here are some anti-racism and human rights resources that I have found useful. I’ll be adding to this list as I continue to explore more. I have included some books relating to intersectional feminism, how feminism needs to be accessible and inclusive of everyone and how white feminism has often held the patriarch in place when relating to race. I practice and work with NVC (Non Violent Communication) and have included some interesting resources and teachers who discuss the pitfalls of this method for ‘people of colour’, and how we can work towards making it more accessible and inclusive for all.

I’ve tried to add buying links that either help benefit the writer, donate funds to literacy programs, provide second hand options or provide low costs and free delivery, as opposed to supporting bigger corporations.
