This is very very good. Baldwin's voice is very lyrical yet powerful. Really interesting to hear his nuanced interactions with black muslims and powerful to hear the unflinching way he calls out the ways we can do better. Written a while ago but feels timeless.

Visionary. Heartbreaking reality. 

Baldwins ability to break down complex systems with such simple language and individual consequences is so impressive.  

Baldwin’s words are always a feast and this book feels timely whenever I read it. But no more so than this moment. Read it again if it’s been a while and, if you’ve somehow never managed to read it, do so as soon as possible. You will not regret it.
