The Black Friend: On Being a Better White Person by Frederick Joseph

4.0

Living in society without reading a book like this is like having to drive without anyone to teach you. Wouldn’t it simply be better for you and everyone else if there were fewer accidents?

This driving instructor / author uses a personal, disarming tone to teach about important social contracts that we never get to learn in a structured way. Read and re-read this book in order to be a better person. Highly recommended for everyone - no matter their race or background.

Some reviewers disliked the tone or style of the book. But who is to say all authors need to have the same voice? All that matters is whether you learned something and became a better human.
