Pocket

Apart from Feedly, one of the other tools recommended recently by Stephen Downes was Pocket. Think of Pocket like a personal magazine. Long articles are especially good in Pocket. You can add an icon to your browser and when you hit on an article you want to read later, click on Pocket and it stores it for you. Then, when you get the chance, you go to Pocket and you have your own curated readings laid out for you.

Djamila Ribeiro

Ribiero is a Brazilian philosopher, black feminist, journalist, online blogger and social activist. Her 2018 book Quem tem medo do feminismo negro? (‘Who is afraid of black feminism?’), is a collection of articles that address topic such as social mobilisation, racial quota policies, and the origins of black feminism in Brazil and America. In the 2017 book, O Que é Lugar de Fala? (‘What is the standpoint of speech?’), she asks who has the right to a voice in a society that has whiteness, masculinity and heterosexuality as its norm? She has also written an anti-racist handbook, Pequeno manual antirracista (2019), written for those who want to deepen their perception of structural racist discrimination and take responsibility for transforming the situation.
