A brilliant and brutal essay on race in America by one of America’s greatest authors. The Fire Next Time is as or more relevant today as it was when written sixty years ago.

Few writers have made me deeply consider and empathize with the continued daily struggles of Black people in America the way Baldwin has. His writing is emotional, confessional, logical, powerful, and relentless. The main essay here is a must-read for Americans looking to understand their history.
