I LOVE TREES SO MUCH ❤️ I used to paint pictures of them every day…
Also reading a great book about them rn by @berondam.bsky.social recommend!
Excited to read @berondam.bsky.social’s “When Trees Testify: Science, Wisdom, History, and America’s Black Botanical Legacy” this summer <3
My wife’s also diving into “Care Work: Dreaming Disability Justice” from @thellpsx.bsky.social! 10/10 read from last year’s radical anti-zionist book club 🌼

Join @melanatedreader.bsky.social & friends for summer reading!!
I must have looked entirely too excited to find a pack of these gummy bears in the snack basket as a flight attendant gave me a "to go care package" of them to keep me "smiling all day". 😂😂😂
I have no shame and my inner 5-year-old self will happily pull them out later for a late night hotel snack ❤️!
A friend sent this photo from @copperfieldsnapa.bsky.social where she purchased a(nother) copy of my When Trees Testify: Science, Wisdom, History, and America's Black Botanical Legacy. I'm in good company with friend @chanda.blacksky.app's The Edge of Space-Time, Robert Moor & Terry Tempest Williams

44. When Trees Testify: Science, Wisdom, History, and America's Black Botanical Legacy - 5.0 🌟
nonfiction, history, memoir, nature, race
this was perfectly executed. It took me longer than I expected to read because I really had to sit with it at times, and it was worth it. (pls go read this)
When you realize it's almost one in the morning and you don't care; you just want to keep reading. This is an engrossing book. Thank you for writing it, @berondam.bsky.social. 💚

When Trees Testify by @berondam.bsky.social is one of my favorite books this year, the kind of book that asks you NOT to race through it, but to read a chapter, then put the book aside while you reflect quietly for awhile on where the story of a particular tree has taken you, taken all of us.
