Token Black Girl: A Memoir by Danielle Prescod

informative inspiring reflective medium-paced

4.75

Danielle articulated circumstances that I have never thought to as someone who has found myself in the position of “Token Black Girl” several times. Her writing has created new paths mentally for me to continue my unlearning of the unfortunate supremacy that is embedded in media, conversation, and education. I am under the impression that often times to create empathy where there may usually be none, insight is necessary. Prescod offers this in a way that feels like a conversation, one extremely important for all types of people to have in order to begin dismantling the system that binds us.
