This book is so well-paced and structured. Every chapter has a new, yet organic revelation that sustains momentum and makes me evermore interested in what happens next. My biggest issue is that, as much as this book wants to address the history of institutional and personalized racism, 1) the story doesn’t center enough Black perspectives, and 2) the story isn’t nearly so insightful or curious about gender.
