    Das Kapital vol. 1. Wouldn’t recommend. Definitely feel like I should have done an economics 101 course first to get the basics down. But hey! Half way through and probably understood about half of it.

    I think I will skip the other two volumes…

      K1 is the easiest to read. I never made it through the other 2. There are helpful companions available online. Check out Richard Wolff and David Harvey on YouTube. Many of Wolff’s lectures from his time at UMass are there. Harvey’s been teaching a reading-Marx course for decades. I think those lectures are on YT as well. If not, he’s got a new website. Wolff may be the world’s best explainer. He’s also authored a book called Understanding Marx.

    Started “Education for critical conciousness” by Paulo Freire. Always wanted to read more from a giant who said: “When education is not liberating, the dream of the oppressed is to become the oppressor”. What a mind!
