Only a quarter of the way thru this title and can already tell this will wind up in my reference pile. I've been highlighting passages from each chapter like a text book. So much to digest.

I caught myself getting defensive. Had to backtrack, detach my own fragile ego, and re-read the chapter from the beginning. The section on Black racism is interesting. Internalized racism is a plague in much the same way internalized homophobia is. This book is definitely going on the "read it again" shelf.

I wanted to wait until I was ready to absorb this book objectively. It would be easy to flip thru it defensively, thinking, "well I'm not like that" or "but what about ___". I'm glad I waited.
I'm only 15% into the book but have already been highlighting important passages I want to return to for better understanding.
Kendi's writing is informative and educational without being preachy or accusatory. Good read so far
