When I requested this ARC I didn't realize that it was written by the same person who had also spoken in a video that I had watched during the BLM protests in 2020. That video was so impactful, and is something that I'm still thinking about 2 years later.
Kimberly's writing is accessible and compelling, much like the video was.
She lays out the systemic issues at work, and counters them with changes that can and should be made in order to move the country forward.
This is a great primer into educating yourself about the obstacles and harm that Black folx in the USA have endured, and yet despite all that they still are making strides to rise above and making a positive impact on culture, the community, and country.
The last third is targeted to a Black audience and gives practical tips to help them thrive even within circumstances that try desperately to hold them back. The biggest take away from that section is just how important it is to build generational wealth. It creates a lot of stability and advantage that just hasn't been achievable for so many because of systemic racist policies and actions.
Would definitely recommend both the physical and audiobook.
Kimberly's narration holds your attention and the passion you read in the words is even more powerful when she speaks them.
