MORE READING

The latest things I have been reading are:

 
I found this one interesting because Lucky Luciano was following the real amerikkkan ethic of get over at all costs. He was in pursuit of the amerikkkan dream. Also, he worked and was friends with Jewish gangsters, at a time when the old school Sicilian mafia were virulently anti-semitic. The movie "Mobsters" captured this fairly well.



This is a brilliant, hard hitting novel about the Kurdish people and their struggle for survival against the shah and his brutal armies. Everything about this book is heavy. The fact that it was written by a woman from this region makes it all the more compelling. Read it.



I am right in the middle of this one right now. This book includes a chapter on women who have been through kkkanadian residential schools, and how that whole colonial racist system fucked them up. Excellent reading.
Talk to you soon, assholes.
