Between the World and Me by Ta-Nehisi Coates
5.0
Would recommend - definitely read it.
This book is long overdue for me. I think I was afraid of it, honestly. It's so affecting and hard and sad. I'm going to add this to my list of required reading for adulthood (along with [b:The Fire Next Time|464260|The Fire Next Time|James Baldwin|https://images.gr-assets.com/books/1488825618s/464260.jpg|1129041] and [b:The Fire This Time: A New Generation Speaks about Race|28505023|The Fire This Time A New Generation Speaks about Race|Jesmyn Ward|https://images.gr-assets.com/books/1469969005s/28505023.jpg|48658541]). Let's not look away from the reality of racism.
