Why I'm No Longer Talking to White People About Race by Reni Eddo-Lodge
4.0
I found this a difficult book to read; both in subject matter and style.
It’s not easy to admit that one is racist or to be less harsh, benefits from racism in your society, but that is what I think you must do if you are white and live comfortably in a society that is demonstrably structurally racist.
As I said not an easy book to read but deserves four stars because of the importance of the message it contains.
If you are white living in the UK, like me, then you owe it to yourself to read this book and force yourself to keep an open mind and try to help the change that is desperately needed.
