Approaching every question with openness and patience, Emmanuel connects his own experience with race and racism-from his attendance at majority-white prep schools to his time in the NFL playing on majority-black football teams-with insightful lessons on black culture and the things you should and shouldn't say to black people. Filled with honest answers and actionable advice, this book is a must-read for those in our youngest generation looking to understand and dismantle racism within their own communities., A young reader's edition of Emmanuel Acho's Uncomfortable Conversations with a Black Man , aimed at opening a dialogue and mending the racial divide in America amongst our youngest generation., Adapted from Emmanuel Acho's New York Times bestseller Uncomfortable Conversations with a Black Man , comes an essential young readers edition aimed at opening a dialogue about systemic racism with our youngest generation.

- c***t (921)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseThe book I bought was reasonably priced and when it arrived it was in the 'Like New' condition specified in the listing. However, when I saw that the seller had not shipped the book after more than 15 days had passed since my order I felt I must write to say that I had actually placed an order with the seller and inquire when it planned to send the book. The brusque reply was that a tracking number was available, but no number HAD been created until I pointed out that I had placed the order.Catland by Hughes, Kathryn, Like New Used, Free shipping in the US (#356798982438)
