I am lucky enough to live in a city with a phenomenal symphony that does student discounts. The Romantic era of classical is my favorite and Mahler never disappoints. Hearing this live healed me. Check out the adagietto movement if you can’t sit through the whole thing.

My playlist where I dumped some of the songs I listened to. I’ve played a lot of these like Danse Macabre so it really takes me back I need to start seeing the symphony again it’s actually sick that I don’t bc I have one of the best symphony orchestras in the world like ten minutes away from my house 🤨

Had a former English teacher recommend me this (we still get coffee hehe) and I’m not too far into it but it’s already made me think about race and conversations about race differently.
I’m biracial and in the introduction, Diangelo actually talks about the “middle” and this idea of “saliency” in regards to multiracial people, and I *never* hear people talk about the multiracial experience, even if the author admits it’s too complex of a topic to cover in her book which primarily tackles the idea of white fragility. But I very much appreciated her saying that and I’m learning a lot from the book.

This one isnt that long but it took me months because some of the grief and experiences he writes about are so raw and his writing would leave me so breathless I would have to keep taking breaks and have to set the book down for a few days. Never read anything so heartbreaking and beautiful at the same time.
