This is one of the best things I read this year.

This gives a lot of background and information about racism and how we can monitor and help reduce racism. 

I don't want to give too much information because I think this is a book that everyone should read, but I will say that you should go into this book with a little expectations as possible. West goes through the scientific method to explain the best ways to do things, and I think it helps with minimal expectations.

I personally think that this is really good as an audiobook - West narrates it himself and so it sounds like a conversation with a really knowledgable friend, rather than a non-fiction book.
