What The Reviewers Say

Sebastien Stockman,
The Boston Globe
A series of letters that is part memoir, part non-profit white paper ...The open letter is a durable genre, and a venerable tradition in the literature of Black America’s fight for Civil Rights.

Publishers Weekly
Astute and accessible account the challenges and double standards he faces as a Black man in America and what white people can do to help bring about change.

Kirkus
A Black man speaks hard truths to White men about their failure to dismantle systemic racism.
