She posted a piece on her blog, entitled: Why I'm No Longer Talking to White People About Race. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eHer words hit a nerve. The post went viral and comments flooded in from others desperate to speak up about their own experiences. Galvanized by this clear hunger for open discussion, she decided to dig into the source of these feelings. Exploring issues from eradicated black history to the political purpose of white dominance, whitewashed feminism to the inextricable link between class and race, Reni Eddo-Lodge offers a timely and essential new framework for how to see, acknowledge and counter racism. It is a searing, illuminating, absolutely necessary exploration of what it is to be a person of color in Britain today. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eFoyles Nonfiction Book of the Year\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBlackwell's Nonfiction Book of the Year\u003cbr\u003eNamed One of the Best Books of 2017 by: \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eNPR\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eThe \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eGuardian\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eThe \u003ci\u003eObserver\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eThe \u003ci\u003eBrooklyn Rail\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCultured Vultures\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Bloomsbury Circus\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/07\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781408870556\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 272\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.90lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.60h x 5.50w x 1.10d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eReview Citations: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e 07\/17\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eKirkus Reviews\u003c\/i\u003e 10\/01\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eLibrary Journal\u003c\/i\u003e 12\/01\/2017 pg. 111\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eShelf Awareness\u003c\/i\u003e 12\/08\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eShelf Awareness\u003c\/i\u003e 12\/12\/2017\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Reni Eddo-Lodge","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":36649708617884,"sku":"9781408870556","price":22.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/products\/img_4cb5faae-4657-4274-bc3b-d4a0ba333904.jpg?v=1603873519","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/why-im-no-longer-talking-to-white-people-about-race-9781408870556","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
