    NPR is mostly boring. It looks like their preferred book / reading list is equally boring.

    Took a scroll through part of the list, this was the only title that caught my attention at all. Mostly because of the bolded part of the review.

    Koshersoul is a frank, vibrant and profound follow-up to culinary historian Michael W. Twitty’s erudite and eye-opening 2017 book The Cooking Gene. This time around, Twitty explores what it means to be Black and Jewish, to be the inheritor of both African Atlantic and Jewish global diaspora traditions, and to move through the world with that multiconsciousness. Also, there are recipes. Still looking forward to trying out his pastrami-and-collards spring rolls, zested up with ginger, garlic and sesameoil.

    Are there any actual good books on there or is it all just a bunch of woke crap?
