Making an effort to read daily is something I'm working on. I can read short blurbs about the news, but I often don't make time to read opinion pieces or editorials. These can help us learn a lot of things that we can apply to whatever issues we are working on. It also allows us to gain insight into how others live. I think constantly learning and acquiring new knowledge should be at the forefront of every activist's life.
These are articles I’ve saved on facebook or tumblr to read. All of these articles were shared by my awesome friends or even written by some of them. I’m making this post in case anyone is bored or something. I also need to catch up on reading. I’ll go back to these and highlight the ones I’ve read, and bold my favorites.
I hope to publish lists like these every couple of weeks.
