So You Want to Talk About Race by Ijeoma Oluo

“You have to get over the fear of facing the worst in yourself. You should instead fear unexamined racism. Fear the thought that right now, you could be contributing to the oppression of others and you don’t know it. But do not fear those who bring that oppression to light. Do not fear the opportunity to do better.” - Ijeoma Oluo

When reading this book, read a chapter and then re-read it. Finish the book and then re-read it and most importantly, be ready to be honest with yourself.

This is such an impactful and important book. The writing is clear, concise, and direct which ultimately makes the content accessible to all readers. Oluo’s voice is passionate and determined and honest. In all seriousness, does anyone have suggestions on how to get everyone to read this book?
