Saw a cool pin on pinterest and had to keep it. This takes me back to my younger days. I was a little budding social activist, finding my way and soaking up all the knowledge I could. Cornel West came to Southwestern College in San Diego when I was a student and I HAD to go. He spoke such truth and with unwavering conviction. He has some great books, specifically these two Race Matters and Democracy Matters- both of which I read in my activism hey days.
