This was funny and also horrifying and uncomfortable to read as a white person who's been oblivious and ignorant for so long, but I definitely recommend it because these are all stories white people need to hear. There are many great anti-racism books for people open to learning, but this book offers story after story of the everyday racism that Black people encounter and navigate every day. Everyday racism that white people do not recognize and will continue to perpetuate unless we start to listen and learn.

I appreciate Amber and Lacey taking the time and energy to recount and revisit all this trauma. I hope that it's not in vain and that many like myself will be impacted by their book and do better going forward.
