This is tough going: Ms. Alexander is so detailed and thorough in her analysis and her subject matter is so troubling, that this book is, in effect, a hard-to-read must-read. I can't put it down but I also can't not be appalled by the realities that she so deftly exposes and analyzes. I've had so many "a-ha!" moments already and have had to examine so many things that I thought that I knew ... which is what's great

OMG, this is hard to read ... as the truth so often is.... This is a piercing and powerful book, and, because of this, it's a bit of a challenge to read. It reveals a reality much more easily and peaceably ignored, which is why it must be read. There is indeed a New Jim Crow and we ignore it at our peril....
