Reni Eddo-Lodge is a London based award-winning author and journalist. She has written for the New York Times, the Daily Telegraph Guardian independent, and many more. The book "Why I'm No Longer Talking To White People About Race" was held first published book. It has won many awards like Fayles Non-fiction book the many more.

"Why I'm No Longer Talking To White People About Race" Is a non-fiction book that centres on the history of racism in Britain. This system behind it what the meaning of white privilege is a fear of a Black planet and even feminist questions. Additionally, the author explains how race has something to do with class and many topics more.

Going into this, I did not know what to expect. I actually wanted this book for my birthday since I have had lots of great things about it, and I thought it would be a good idea to try to educate myself a little bit further on the topic of race. I am pretty astonished how Delicate this book is with explaining race, gender and class. The statement is that the author has given rather thought-provoking and eye-opening. At the same time, I always knew that I have privileged to live in a western country and be white; however, I am reading about this system of privilege as Pyramids shifting. Usually, I am a fiction reader, but I do enjoy some non-fiction at a time. I have to say that I would recommend this book to anyone, in particular, any white person living on this earth sends educating yourself as always the best it's trying to reset your old habits. Probably the best thing about this book is that Eddo-Lodge is not trying to make you feel guilty. Instead, she's trying to make you want to change something. This was one of the best parts of this book.

To cut a long story short, I am glad that I have picked this book up and that it has shifted my view a little bit more into becoming a better person if I may say so myself if these words have not convinced you already I am going to tell it again, please pick this book up.
