This was a good entry level yet thought provoking book about the topic of racism written (pretty explicitly) for white people. I enjoyed listening to it and would recommend it.

Well-written, and in a casual style, Acho provides a fully cited entry to anti-racism and allyship.

Stop what you’re doing and go buy or borrow this book now.
This is the book I’ve been searching for, a guide for white people trying to do the work but not knowing how to ask hard questions or initiate potentially uncomfortable conversations with Black friends despite having so many questions I seem answers to about what to do, what not do do, and how to be helpful as an anti-racist.

It was readable and had actionable items in each chapter, as well as a longer list at the end. It was a weird book. The author comes from a privileged background, so I kept thinking something was just a little off balance. I can't say that I learned anything new, since I have had uncomfortable conversations for my whole life, intended or not. I think that is part of being curious. It just left me feeling confused.

Lots of great resources in here and Acho has a great voice in his writing. This feels like it could be a great starting point to learn more about the specific topics touched on in the book.
