By Kathryn Evans
These are books I've found useful in learning to understand my own privilege and what I can do about it. They're also not difficult to grapple with cos my intentions are good but my attention span is poor.
Ps this list is lacking in books by neurodiverse people and writers with disabilities - please recommend!! can find me on twitter @KathrynEvansAuthor TA!
