Cultural Dark Academia
After my last post about the lack of representation in academia, I felt it neccessary to provide some examples of what Iβm talking about. Obviously there are more countries in the world than I can list and provide books for, so for a quick list this is what I got. !! Keep researching !! If you have any more books by POC please reply them !! If a country isnβt listed, that doesnβt mean itβs not important, this is just what I could get together real quick. If I made any mistakes, please let me know, weβre all learning. We need to help each other end eurocentrism in academia, so value representation and educate yourselves πππ

We looked at each other and just laughed; everything was hysterically funny, even the playground slide was smiling at us, and at some point, deep in the night, when we were swinging on the jungle gym and showers of sparks were flying out of our mouths, I had the epiphany that laughter was light, and light was laughter, and that this was the secret of the universe.
