Love the combo of “the world is burning” and “grow something anyway”

My 8th graders just finished a collaborative unit on this. Read a dystopian fiction and research a contributing aspect that is prevalent in real life dystopian systems (propaganda, resistance, etc).

I’d also add in some poetry to remind you that life is beautiful and recharge the soul. A little pallet cleanser if you will.

WestDakota97 :
May I recommend, end each sequence with a utopian or optimistic speculative fiction, such that, fiction1=what we’re fighting, nonfiction=how we’ll fight, and fiction2= What it looks like when we win🌷

Everyone who’s into dystopian fiction can also benefit from expanding their fiction to include postcolonial fiction

Any books about how they banned foraging so we have to rely on our government for food and the negative impact this had on natives and forests along with a foraging guide. Gonna need it

... one book you may want to research.. or at least something to consider when trying to figure out a new future... "Social Forestry"...i think resisting needs to come with re-imaging what is "normal"

Ohhh pairings!! Im reading Braiding Sweetgrass by Robin Wall Kimmering and The Earthsea Trilogy by Ursula K Leguin right now! A gentle, natural and spiritual pairing about mantaining balance.

I specifically flip back and forth between fiction and nonfiction so I can load my brain with info and find comfort in the universality of human stories. I agree with someone else- gotta spatter in some poetry

I just read the rise and fall of the 3rd r*ich and a wwii novel about surviving harrowing events at the same time. It made it more inspiring than terrifying.

I work in a library. Today we had two requests for The Age of Surveillance Capitalism. I'd never heard of it before, but it seems it's having a moment

THANK YOU. not enough folks grasp how crucial it is to read fiction to expand our understanding and imagination of what’s possible (the good and the bad)

love this list. Klara and the Sun is also about how AI can never truly know a person/ what makes us human. Also a parable of giving up your identity for others needs. great book
