"If we burn" might turn out to be the book about cross pollination of street protests during the last decade which I've tried to track down for two or three years. I mean there had yo be a book.

Well this sure looks interesting. A new book about the women of the 2 Tone era ska revival bands.
The unity of black and white people was a key aspect of the second wave ska era. But where did gender fit in? Many bands had few, if any, women in their lineup, so women had to do it for themselves. The author interviews more than 50 women involved in ska in the UK during the ‘70s and ‘80s.
The author also hosts a live Zoom book club every Wednesday night this summer where they rea…

Now, imagine that your most loyal customers are showing up together, city by city,

How many loyal customers are there? Would they be filling bars, ballrooms, or base

#Evolution is easy.
That's the theme of my writing (book) project. My claim is that we* have a tendency to think of evolution as hard: life is fragile, good things are rare, death is everywhere. Life seems impossible, miraculous. Plus, we continuously confront a depiction of evolution as big radical change that feels like an impossible transformation.
