As news media outlets bend over backwards to pledge fidelity and kiss the rings of our incoming administration, more Americans are turning to the bound written word for guidance on the road ahead. I offer this as my own guidepost.

Hey @aaron.bsky.team, I’m a Palestinian elected official and have been working to get my colleagues over here. Really like this place but structural discrimination against Palestinians is a deal breaker. Please fix this👇

@soilent.bsky.social recently asked me to put together an introductory list of introductory socialist/communist readings, and I thought it might be helpful.
The goal of this is not to be definitive, or to say these are the only important texts, but rather to give a starting point.
