I liked this, but it was a little too much Christianity for me.  I don't think it was meant to make me think that Christianity in the US is too far gone and too far into whiteness to be salvaged, but it did. But Ms. Brown seems like she's doing great work, and I'm very happy for her. I think it might be particularly helpful for folks who might be committing microaggressions in the workplace and not realize.

This book was so amazingly written. It bled with her heart and soul. She conveyed her messages so well And I love that she wrote interludes for herself.
