This was a great book! I got the audio version and listened to whenever I drove or was working out. It was insightful and funny. He has a great ability to intermingle politics, social issues and comedy in a brilliant way. Definitely recommend this book.

3.5. The content was decent but it didn't find the format "hilarious" or even humorous.

This is a new to me author as well as a new to me comedian. Hughley was able to take the very serious subject of racism and make me laugh, while at the same time feeling frustrated that we still haven't conquered being a racist country. He writes this book in 2020, so right at the peak of COVID. He finishes the book right after Biden comes into office.

It was a good book that I could hardly put down and I'm glad I read his on-point perspective. I would like to read the same book without all the cursing, but it's obvious that's not how Hughley communicates.
