Literal must-reads for this week

1. Roxane Gay’s NYT Op-ed: “Alton Sterling and When Black Lives Stop Mattering.”

2. “What will make the killings stop?” from The Atlantic

3. “This is what white people can do to support #BlackLivesMatter,” from WaPo.

4. “Empathy and ‘Orange Is The New Black,’” from The New Yorker, on how this magnificent show (and pop culture at large) offered an essential perspective to #BlackLivesMatter.

Deez Links wishes you a safe weekend of reading & reflection.
