lou reading things | a latinx book haul because the us dollar has failed me @loureadingthings | Uploaded August 2020 | Updated October 2024, 1 hour ago.
i read dead people (but they're latin american!!!)
with the BRL to USD exchange rate being as high as a kid leaving the dentist, i make my savings account sweat by spending a whole bunch of cash on books by Latin American authors. most of them are dead. it happens. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯.
also, this is a SHORT VIDEO!!! what a CONCEPT!!!!

LEBANESE RED CROSS: If possible, consider making a donation to the Lebanese Red Cross on the aftermath of the Beirut explosion: https://www.supportlrc.app/donate/
COVID-19: Just as in the USA, black and impoverished people were disproportionately affected by the COVID crisis in Brazil. UNEAFRO is an organization dedicated to helping students from Favelas and marginalized communities with their studies and college prep, but with the schools closed, they have rerouted their efforts to make sure vulnerable families receive food, basic hygiene kits, and cover rent and basic utilities. Because of the currency exchange rate, 20 USD is enough to feed a family of 4 for a month. If you can, consider donating at:
