I read 52 books in 2020. Some disappointed me and some were aligned with my thinking. Most importantly, some were absolute revelations! Books that upended my beliefs, provided unexpected insights, and kept me from retreating to my cocoon in a year where the combination of global, national and regional issues – helped by social media – made it so easy to ostracize difference. Some of them are• Seven and a half lessons about the brain by Lisa Feldman Barrett• Doughnut economics: Seven ways to think like a 21st-century economist by Kate Raworth• Care Work by Leah Lakshmi Piepzna-Samarasinha• Between the World and Me by Ta-Nehisi CoatesWhipping Girl: A Transsexual Woman on Sexism and the Scapegoating of Femininity by Julia Serrano• About Us: Essays from the Disability Series of the New York Times by Peter Catapano (editor) and Rosemarie Garland-Thomson (editor)In this article I share those 13 books with you.What about you? Please let me know in the comments what books you read in 2020 that changed your mind or gave you a different perspective about a topic.#CuriousMindsDiversePeople2021 #Diversity #Inclusion
