Such a powerful read! So many gems throughout the book but here's one of my fave quotes:

p. 196: "We are placed in these roles presumably to effect change, but we are rarely given and formal training, as if our lived experience is enough."

A powerful mix of memoir, research, and education. It's always important to remember to move towards ending systemic injustices, to take what you learn and use it rather than just learn about it. Dr. Blackstock does a beautiful job of modeling this throughout the book.
