The Fire This Time: A New Generation Speaks about Race by Jesmyn Ward

5.0

so many beautiful writers contributed to this collection to say a wide variety of things about being Black in america, about police brutality, about the inaccuracy of the idea that america is in “post-racial” era

really interesting reading this nearly 10 years after most of these essays and poems were written, given how much has happened since. it was almost like walking back into time in some ways
