We Are Not Like Them by Christine Pride, Jo Piazza
4.0

This. This book was pretty powerful. 

If you pay any attention to what’s happening in the U.S. right now, this book is a great fictional depiction of situations that are taking place. 

You’ll meet our two main characters, one white and one black who have been best friends since childhood. Then, tragedy strikes as an unarmed Black man is shot and killed by the hands of the police force. 

This story is a testament to their friendship, White privilege, police brutality, a corrupt judicial system, and more! It was an easy listen via audio, and it definitely made me stop and think. 

If you’re looking for something that might move you a little, or educate a little, I highly recommend!
