Citizen: An American Lyric by Claudia Rankine

4.0

3.5 stars

This was a quick audiobook (only 1.5 hours long) and yet some parts kept my attention more than others. Surprisingly the part I liked the best was about Serena Williams and tennis - a sport I have never followed or played. The snapshots of various small acts of racism delivered with intros like "You're next in line at the grocery store..." or "You're eating lunch with a co-worker..." stood out for me also. I'd suggest the audiobook, it brings the whole thing more to life than just reading it would.
