Recommendations
Melissa’s Playlist Recommendation: November Feels, Listen on Spotify @AnswerinProgress
Taha’s Podcast Recommendation: The Boys are Broken by The Nuanced Life
This episode of The Nuanced Life, two mothers in the American Midwest talk about what it means to raise boys in an era where ideas about masculinity are changing. Even though this conversation is now two years old, it is one that I keep going back to.
Sabrina’s Book Recommendation: How Charts Lie by Alberto Cairo
Nowadays, infographics and data visualizations are one of the main ways the media uses to convey information. However, like any language, charts can lie or mislead. This book is a super easy read (I finished it in 2 days), and it arms you with a toolkit to avoid being mislead by pretty pictures.
