Really well written. Lyrical in a lot of spots . Extremely uncomfortable book to read as a white person but I'm glad I did. It's a very clear story about the difficulty of being Black in America and the contradiction of not understanding what it brand to be black. The author is obviously questioning that but also embracing his Blackness and that if many others in a way that makes it clear that being Black is a higher state of being. At the same time, it's also an equal state of being. I imagine it would be an uncomfortable book for many Black people to read as well.
