From #blacklivesmatter to Black Liberation by Keeanga-Yamahtta Taylor

4.0

This book covers something about race that I haven't read in any other on the topic. It's the way it breaks down the idea that there is one homogenous black community. How there are very good reasons why some black people are not as liberal as others - as they have their own interests beyond the hopes of the #BlackLivesMatter movement. It's also great to have a book that articulates why President Obama in the US was so ineffective in making positive changes for black americans - and not in a partisan way, but just in highlighting all the ways in which he felt like he needed to moderate his work on racial issues.
