In May 2020, you told Jane, via Instagram, non-fiction books to read to be anti-racist and to make us all better people, and she made it into an Ideal Bookshelf. AND, click here to download a checklist of those books, so you can read them all. We're donating the profits (for the mug version, too!) to the Equal Justice Initiative. Founded in 1989 by Bryan Stevenson (author of Just Mercy), the EJI "is committed to ending mass incarceration and excessive punishment in the United States, to challenging racial and economic injustice, and to protecting basic human rights for the most vulnerable people in American society." Please visit their website to learn more about them.
