Why I’m No Longer Talking to White People About Race
Why I'm No Longer Talking to White People About Race, has transformed the conversation of race and racism both in Britain and around the world. Examining everything from eradicated black history to the political purpose of white dominance, from whitewashed feminism to the inextricable link between class and race, Eddo-Lodge offers a timely and essential new framework for how to see, acknowledge, and counter racism. Including a new afterword by the author, this is a searing, illuminating, absolutely necessary exploration of what it is to be a person of colour in Britain today, and an essential handbook for anyone looking to understand how structural racism works.

Apologies for a slightly delayed post but having had a really interesting discussion about Why I'm No Longer Talking to White People About Race, we rated the book 4.5/5.
The book generated some really interesting discussion. We were each challenged by different areas of the book, it caused us to re-think some things and left us with more to look into and learn. We were also grateful for the insight it gave into Black British history.
While it has been a cause for criticism of the book, we found it helpful that the reader had shared her own experiences, to give us insight and enable us to better understand.
