el dang started reading Rimonim by Aurora Levins Morales
I'm still looking for what outside.ofa.dog/book/151709/s/for-times-such-as-these didn't give me. This book isn't quite it either, but I am enjoying it so far.

This is actually scratching some of that itch. I think part of what I needed to see was a set of examples of how to work with the old material and make it make sense for modern sensibilities. This collection is of necessity one person's perspective on that, and not every page hits the mark for me, but the best parts are excellent and overall it's a really strong example of how to approach these things. I think For Times Such As These suffers from being a little shy of saying "this is what we do", trying a little too hard to be universally accessible, and that keeps it in a sort of vague territory that made less helpful.
