Review of 'So you want to talk about race' on 'Storygraph'

5 stars

I actually started reading this closer to when it came out...2017? And read almost half and then got distracted but not because it isn’t good. It’s SOOOO good. It’s a book I think every white person should read. I really love Ijeoma’s brain and her approach to writing this book. I finished by listening on audio (from the beginning) and the audiobook reader did a great job. I had the thought a few times that Oluo is maybe even a little too generous with her readers. As in, too patient, too kind. But I guess that was the goal, I just feel a bit more angry on her behalf considering everything that has happened since she wrote it. Basically, just effing read this book.
