This book is AMAZING. Ziwe does an amazing job of combining humor, anecdotes, and real issues to create a wonderful body of work.
Each essay was funny and tackled many topics that many people face and no one wants to talk about. I found myself wanting to read each essay more than once and I could not put this down.
I would recommend this book to anyone that is a fan of Ziwe but especially to those people of color who often find themselves in “white spaces.”
This is easily one of my top reads of the year and I really hope this isn’t the last book that Ziwe writes. Someone get this woman back on TV!!!

A perfect memoir imo- short, introspective, serious when necessary, and laugh out loud hilarious (duh). I could hear ziwes voice narrating the entire book, always staying true to herself and the character she’s spent the past few years curating. The footnotes themselves would have been an entertaining read. This book left me excited to see what ziwe does next.

Listened to the audiobook which I think is the better way to take this book in. Ziwe’s brand of humor fully shines with her as the narrator.

“I can’t control whether others think I’m worthy. Some people think Robert E. Lee is an icon.” Ziwe, you’ll always be famous. This collection of essays, which I would consider a memoir completely embodies Ziwe’s spirit. She so expertly combines her lived experiences with racism with her hilarious takes on pop culture. I’ve always been a fan. In fact, one of my rules on social media is to never scroll past a Ziwe interview without stopping.
