Welcome to This Week, Those Books, your rundown on books new and old that resonate with the week’s big news story.

This post is freely available to everyone as we are, first and foremost, a news literacy project and this contentious topic needs context.

A very special shout out to those incredible folks who recently joined others in supporting this effort by investing in a paid membership. Thank you. It’s just a few bucks a month but please know that you are helping keep this 16-month-old venture alive (you give me heart) and accessible to our community of more than 10,000 subscribers in 114 countries.

🎧 Would you rather listen? The podcast, a read-along, drops at the weekend.

– Rashmee
