✨ Thrifted ✨
I was expecting this to be challenging. Ta-Nehisi Coates’s name kept appearing on black authors’ books I loved, so I knew this was one I had to try.
It being scripted as a letter to his son was so striking and thought-provoking, but also brought a slight tear to my eye 🥲 I can only imagine how heartbreaking this was to write.
Very much based around the racism of America (but interestingly touching upon being a black American person in France too), this needs content warnings which I’ll post below.
Thank you ❤️
