My Vanishing Country: A Memoir by Bakari Sellers

2.0

Such mixed feelings on this one. It feels like an amalgamation of three great books that only sort of come together as one okay book.

I was fascinated by almost everything Bakari Sellers chose to share in this memoir, but it felt like he pivoted each time the book would have benefited from more extended reflection. Despite the low star rating, I would love to read a follow-up that expands on the themes introduced in “My Vanishing Country.”
