This book made me think about all the many ways that racism is a part of our history, present-day media, schools, and so many others. Because the author is in the fashion business and has always been interested in fashion, I found some of the book to be boring, as I'm not as interested. However, I learned a lot about the industry and how it perpetuates racism through its choices.

A very eye opening read about how being BIPOC can influence all aspects of one's life, especially as someone who grew up being the only BIPOC in her community.

I liked the points on which I could relate and reflect. There is an important message here for those of us trying to be better antiracisits. There is also a message of acceptance of ourselves. Some of the writing is a little difficult to get through in terms of style. But the message is well-delivered.
