Nothing about the book, but curious about Praxis Press vs other leftist publishers like verso books, leftword, etc.?

Ah, I meant the selection of philosophers was Western biased. But yes, to your point, most Western philosophers also have Western biases

Our failure to reckon with this racism for black liberation means that this same genocidal playbook is extended to our fam in the middle east 💔

Unfortunately, most offered sources are implicitly biased towards Western/traditional intellectual philosophy as we live in a culture that has normalized and centered Western (male) philosophers

Oddly enough I think Action Comics’s Action Philosophers is a really breezy introduction to an international body of philosophers that you can use to further your education. Still Western biased, but less so

I.e. Lao Tzu, Confucius, Simone du Beauvoir, Frantz Fanon, et al
