Warum ich nicht länger mit Weißen über Hautfarbe spreche by Reni Eddo-Lodge

zaracampbell's review against another edition

informative medium-paced

5.0

A must-read for any white person; incredibly enlightening and provides an opportunity for contextualising our own relation (and responsibility) to racism. Understanding the intersection of race and gender, race and class, etc is also paramount to breaking down the institutional structures that serve to harm people of colour. 

Issues with systematic racism in the UK must be spotlighted: our education system asks us to look to the American civil rights movement to study the impacts of racism, distancing ourselves from any possibility that racism could have been so prevalent in our country. 

Reni writes very powerfully, unapologetically and with conviction.

i dont really have anything to say about a book like this, honestly. its something you can only learn from, rather than have sort of criticism on.

This book is compelling, useful, and a great introduction to anti-racism. I learned a lot about the history of race and racism in Britain.
