It would be easy to just say that this is an essential book for anyone who truly believes that opposing racism is about more than being “not racist”. But in reality it’s a book for everyone to read, to improve society for all.

Overall, I think the book was very accessible and easy to follow, although some of the ideas and themes included certainly need time to sink in and to be digested.
I enjoyed the narrative choice of alternating personal experiences and explanatory/reflective segments. It was really fascinating to follow the author's own journey and to see it reflected in the themes included in the chapter.
I very much enjoyed the historical sections and I look forward to expanding my reading and my knowledge of these topics.
