Reference Library For Solidarity

Ohhh so many options and means to educate oneself.  All of which can be accessed on that rectangular device currently in your hand or pocket.  There are books, articles, podcasts, movies, documentaries, trainings, newsletters, organizations to elevate your awareness on the theory, history, sociology, psychology, ontology of the human condition that is slowly arcing toward solidarity.  

We hope the below will help you on the journey and hope you do not travel the path alone (hint: bring a friend(s) along for the ride)
