Very down to earth and well researched. Easy to pick up and read and gives you lots of resources in being an ally. Loved it.

Great Book

I loved the lay out of this book with questions many of them ones I've wondered myself. It was a good way to break down a topic that can feel overwhelming to understand and learn to change your thoughts.

 Emmanuel Acho, former NFL player turned sports analyst, takes on the hard questions that many white Americans are afraid to ask but need to know to be more informed. Based on his hit YouTube series, Acho presents each topic as a way to help people increase their understanding and change their behaviors to help end racism in America.

Uncomfortable Conversations with a Black Man is an excellent beginning primer on race and racism in America. Acho patiently discusses both basic topics and deeper concerns such as white privilege, and reverse racism. An approachable reading, Acho's book is a good starting place, full of recommendations on how to deepen your understanding.
