How to Be an Antiracist by Ibram X. Kendi
5.0

5 stars. I think everybody should read this book. For me, the main points are that (1) You can be racist or anti-racist, there is no "no racist" (or better said, you can have racist or antiracist thought, policies, etc) and (2) Racist policies come from self-interest and produce racist ideas, not the other way around, which after some thought makes a lot of sense.

I do not agree with all the conclusions Ibram Kendi seems to reach, but regardless, I think it is an enlightening book.
