So You Want to Talk About Race is a nonfiction book by Nigerian-American writer Ijeoma Oluo that analyzes racism in America. With the widespread media coverage and public outcry against white supremacy and police brutality, it’s surprising how racism is still such a difficult topic to discuss, even in private conversations. It’s in everyday life, from how you deal with someone’s racist jokes to explaining the politics surrounding Black hair. How do you amicably point out daily microaggressions without developing ill feelings towards one another? More importantly, how can you open your white friends’ eyes to their white privilege? Oluo enlightens readers about the ways honest conversations about these difficult but significant topics shape people’s ability to connect with one another.
So You Want to Talk About Race is a New York Times bestseller. It earned an average of 4.51-star rating on Goodreads based on 8,596 reviews and 72,063 ratings.
