Conversations in Black: On Power, Politics, and Leadership by Ed Gordon

5.0

Recently there was a flood in news, opinions, etc., about racism and how to think about it. I'm happy that our country is having this discourse and it's definitely overdue, by much more than 400 years. This book was a bit of fresh air because it recognizes that there are many viewpoints, and takes the time to express a few of them. Each chapter is dedicated to a topic and has like 5 or so celebrities, politicians, and activists providing their take on the subject. As a reader, some opinions appealed to me and some didn't do so as much, and that was OKAY because it was the whole point.

Read this book if you're looking to join the conversation but are still trying to figure out what you believe in a world where everybody else is telling you how to think.
