Why I'm No Longer Talking to White People about Race by Reni Eddo-Lodge

challenging emotional informative inspiring reflective sad medium-paced

5.0

A book every white person should read. As a person of white privilege, I thought myself a well-read, non racist moral person.  I still feel I'm well read but now feel much more educated, especially in the context of historical black history in the UK, my knowledge limited to US history taught in school. The title itself is very smack it in your face polarising, but I read it anyway. For me, the most interesting, thought-provoking, and challenging chapter was the one about feminism. Overall It was a sad emotional must-read book giving me a better understanding of the issues involved, and I hope making me a better informed ally.
