Summary, etc.: | "For Frederick Joseph, life as a transfer student in a largely white high school was full of wince-worthy moments that he often simply let go. As he grew older, however, he saw these as missed opportunities not only to stand up for himself but to spread awareness to those white people who didn't see the negative impact they were having. Speaking directly to the reader, Frederick Joseph calls up race-related anecdotes from his past, explaining why they were hurtful and how he might handle things now. Each chapter features the voice of at least one artist or activist, from Angie Thomas, author of The Hate U Give, to April Reign, creator of #OscarsSoWhite, to Jemele Hill, sports journalist and podcast host, and eleven others. Touching on everything from cultural appropriation to 'reverse racism' to white privilege, this book serves as conversation starter, tool kit, and invaluable window into the life of a former 'token Black kid' who now offers himself as the friend many readers need." -- From container. |
