4.5

Imagine a world with no poverty, hunger, homelessness, war.  Not a utopia, but a world with its inhabitants having all their needs met while at the same time being in near perfect equilibrium with the planet we all share.  Barring the many grammatical errors, this book is an inspiring look at what our entire world could look like if only we have the ambition and fortitude to advocate for and implement its teachings.

5.0

A “must read” for all white people.  There are so many points that the author makes about the reasons and behaviors surrounding “white fragility” that I (and likely you) took for granted.  I intend to read this book again and hope to come away a more enlightened, and less racist, white person.
