-The murder of George Floyd has sparked outrage across America and the rest of
-the world, and rightly so. The death of so many members of the black community
-at the hands of the US police is horrifying and utterly heartbreaking.

-things worse.

-I want to do more than just talk about my outrage on social media. I plan to
-learn as much as I can about racism and how to combat it. My friend and
-colleague [Sam](https://samkapila.com) posted a long list of books in an
-Instagram story. I'm reproducing that list here and I'm going to be reading as
-many of them as I can to educate myself do my bit to support the black
-community.
