Oh Hello Ana

July bookmarks

Published on the 4th August 2020

I've been thinking about this bookmark page especially because styling wise it is incomplete and a bit ugly and one day someone will call me out. But that isn't the only thing I've been thinking about: all those days (almost all this year) when I thought that I've done nothing for myself or my career I like to come to my bookmarks page and scroll. The work in the links that I collect here wasn't done by me, but they were learned by me and that is progress and accomplishment. All these people contributed to expanding my views and to my growth. I'm proud of my small archive.

The news are quiet now and it is on purpose. There's protests happening. There's things happening. They just aren't showing it anymore. #BlackLivesMatter

I can't believe that I also have to say this but... wear a mask!

My bookmark list was getting big so here's a couple of things I've saved during May and June 2020.

May bookmarks - BLM

Published on the 17th June 2020

Black Lives Matter.

In today's age with today's resources there is no excuse not to educate yourself and see how we're in a racist society.

Follow the folks who talk about racial injustice. Think how the technology we're building is tracking and tracing everyone who is protesting. Learn about data regulations. Learn the tricks of the media.

Here's a couple of things I think everyone should see. However, I urge you all to please diversify the feeds you consume.

Tech bookmarks can wait another month. This is what matters.

I don't remember much from this last month. All I remember is trying not to be on my computer and just look at the birds that come to the garden. So this will be a very short blog post. A jotting!!!!
