One pick by Leah Thomas, intersectional environmental activist and eco-communicator:
Soil: The Story of a Black Mother’s Garden by Camille T. DungyRead about another entry on the list.
I love this book because it shows how tending to the land can be both a personal and political act, especially as a Black woman reclaiming space, care, and belonging. It’s a beautiful reflection on how our relationships with soil, home, and community are deeply tied to climate, justice, and what it means to nurture a livable future.
Soil is among Sari Fordham's seven books to read when the world is on fire.
