August 4 – You are Your Best Thing: Vulnerability, Shame Resilience, and the Black Experience An Anthology edited by Tarana Burke and Brené Brown.
Burke and Brown are the perfect pair to usher in this stark, potent collection of essays on Black shame and healing. Along with the anthology contributors, they create a space to recognise and process the trauma of white supremacy, a space to be vulnerable and affirm the fullness of Black love and Black life.
