Now this is a PHENOMENAL book. It is hard hitting and informative. I had so many moments of anger and sadness throughout, but also a determination to address the prejudices I have in my own life. I have been struggling to find a sustainable way to address people’s racism, so Reni Eddo-Lodge talking about towards the end of the book that was impactful to me. I don’t feel that I have the eloquence to discuss what this book meant to me, so I’m including some of the text here that I really appreciated 😳
(Page 79) Opposing positive discrimination based on apprehensions about getting the best person for the job means inadvertently revealing what you think talent looks like, and the kind of person in which you think talent resides.
(Page 92) (White privilege) eases you into letting your guard down with white people, assured you’ll be taken seriously, but simultaneously not being surprised when a conversation highlights your differences against your white peers.
(Page 201) It’s worth questioning exactly who wins from the suggestion that the only working-class people worth of compassion are white, or that it’s black and ethnic minority people who are holding scant resources at the expense of white working-class people who are losing out.
A must read for anybody and everybody ✨
