April 28, 2023: Crowd-sourced Recent Scholarship

[Writing about Kidada Williams’ new book a couple weeks back reminded me that it’s been too long since I’ve focused a series on new scholarship. So this week I’ve highlighted a handful of great recent books, leading up to this crowd-sourced post of additional recommendations—add more in comments, please!]

A couple more books I’d add to my own recommendations:

Went to a book talk this week for Chad Williams’ vital new book!

And all Americans should read Elwood Watson’s collection of essays on race in contemporary America.

 

And on Twitter, Mae highlights Milan Zafirovski’s new book, and adds this recent paper as context for its frustrating salience in our current moment.

 

Monthly recap this weekend,

Ben
