Sure, I'll Be Your Black Friend: Notes from the Other Side of the Fist Bump by Ben Philippe

5.0

Have you ever read a book and immediately wanted to be friends with the author? That’s how this book made me feel.

This memoir in essays follows Ben Phillipe’s experiences of being Black in predominately white spaces. It touches on many important issues while being laugh out loud funny. This book can be uncomfortable and speaks the truth but the humor makes it easy to read. This is a great book for anyone looking to start or continue their anti-racist reading journey. Truly this is a must read.

Fans of Born a Crime by Trevor Noah will love this one!

Thank you to Harper Perennial for the complementary copy of this book! #oliveinfluencer
