Undrowned: Black Feminist Lessons from Marine Mammals by Alexis Pauline Gumbs

I found this kind of writing hard to digest as a book, to read straight through. I think I would've enjoyed it as a picture book or a coffee table book more, but reading it straight through didn't feel as flowing to me, and I found myself skimming to get through it. I think my approach to the book didn't allow a true appreciation for the writing style or content.

if I could go back and do it again (and maybe I will), I would read more slowly and in chunks, and take each reading as an opportunity to reflect and to write inspired, and meditate on its themes.
