"In Uncomfortable Conversations With a Black Man, Acho takes on all the questions, large and small, insensitive and taboo, many white Americans are afraid to ask--yet which all Americans need the answers to, now more than ever. With the same open-hearted generosity that has made his video series a phenomenon, Acho explains the vital core of such fraught concepts as white privilege, cultural appropriation, and "reverse racism." In his own words, he provides a space of compassion and understanding in a discussion that can lack both. He asks only for the reader's curiosity--but along the way, he will galvanize all of us to join the antiracist fight." -- Provided by publisher.… (más)

This is one of the books I will be purchasing copies of to hand out to friends who have not read it yet. It is written to be very easy to read for those who are just beginning their learning journey. You will come away with a long list of other books, essays, documentaries and organizations to check out as you continue. I definitely recommend it.

Content Note: There is one instance of the use of the f-word in the book. It is used in the context of a quote and is on page 65. ( )

I really enjoyed reading this book. I actually listen to it which, similar to listening to the audiobook of Stamped by Jason Reynolds, made me feel like I was sitting in the room with a Emmanuel and having a conversation with him. A lot of questions that I have personally as a white woman were answered, however I do have some other questions that may someday be answered. They will help me to keep the uncomfortable conversations going. This book helped me to step out of my comfort zone and into my uncomfortable zone. Conversations are what we need and should be continued. This is a book that should be read in HS. ( )

Relatively easy read given the subject matter. Favorite fun fact (not checked): the NYC police budget is 5.6 billion dollars; if this were defense spending, it would place NYC 33 in the world. ( )

One of the most thought provoking books I’ve read. This book will stay with me for a very long time. ( )

From the inside cover: "...(Emmanuel) Acho connects his own experience with race and racism--including his majority-white prep school education juxtaposed with his time in majority black NFL locker rooms--with the lessons of history, culture, and the wisdom of other black voices. The result is an essential guide to the conversations we should all be having to increase our understanding and join the anti-racist fight.
