A review by kschilke
The World Record Book of Racist Stories by Lacey Lamar, Amber Ruffin

5.0

Every white person needs to read this book. Actually, you need to listen to the audiobook version instead because it’s read by the authors and is one of the best audiobook versions of a book I’ve listened to—and I’m afraid you would lose so much of the nuances of these stories if you just read them on the page.
The Ruffin sisters are hilarious in their storytelling, which does not take away from the fact that these stories are real (and infuriating) stories of racist encounters. Read this and do better if you can identify yourself or loved ones in any of these stories (or if you’re a bystander in the workplace, at the store, etc.)
