The Afrominimalist's Guide to Living with Less by Christine Platt
Not going to rate since this book is very clearly not meant for me and I don't want to skew results for anyone who would find benefit in it.
It is much more a how to guide than I realized. I didn't find it particularly insightful or drive a ton of understanding that I lacked before, but I realized pretty quickly that wasn't the intention. (I'm not part of the African diaspora, and I was raised outside the conspicuous consumption and endless consumerism of American culture). I was trying to understand more of the cultural background since I do often work with first gen college students around finances. I found those insights few and far between.
