We all have certain things we need in order to sustain our movement. One of these for me are stories about discovering who we are. These are the stories I read and watch over and over and over again.

I’m using genres here more as a convenience for breaking this big long list into smaller chunks than anything, so please be warned I’ll ignore any kibitzing over my naming and categorization choices 😎
