Let me break this down for you, and y'all can go break this down for others.
"Rest in power" is not the woke version of "Rest in peace." It's not just cool, it's not a way to show you really liked someone, it's not something you say when a famous person you really liked dies.
If you shop at #barnesandnoble, order books by BIPOC authors, marginalized authors, debut authors, LGBT authors, underrepresented authors. Tell them in the only language they speak ($$$) that these books matter, and that they are worthy of shelf space, too.
