I need white people to stop writing in the pov of black people or women in this instance. Jodi has no idea what it's like to be a black person and none of the experiences portrayed here are realistic.
There are better ways to talk about racism and this wasn't it, maybe collaborate with a black author next time.

I would never recommend this to anyone, the two stars are for some of the few quotes I liked in the book.
