The Revolution Will Not Be Funded by Incite! Women of Color Agai...

Alex’s first review of the year

really liked it
This book is just as relevant as when it was written (2007), especially having worked at and with nonprofits over the past few years. It was really interesting having multiple perspectives represented, especially how they chose to approach (or not approach) funding.

Favorite essays were:
- Native Organizing Before the Non-Profit Industrial Complex, by Madonna Thunder Hawk
- Between Radical Theory and Community Praxis, by Amara H Peréz

The Unbearable Lightness of Being by Milan Kundera

Alex’s last review of the year

liked it
Hard to rate.

The characters are infuriating and the entire plot and philosophizing about philandering is obnoxious.

However it's also the biggest literary reference to Beethoven's "muss es sein". And the idea of fate and decisions going from light > heavy and vice versa, and the depiction of the Czech Republic under Soviet rule, especially how it affected people's lives and livelihoods in their day to day, was really well done.
