I really enjoyed reading this book, and I would definitely recommend it to people who don't understand the fear, frustration, resignation, the complexity of emotions that can erupt out of Black people in the US. I've experienced some of the things Coates explain so effortlessly or begrudgingly at times. There's a lot of history, social trends, and deeply personal issues in this book. It's not something you see often. I finished it in a weekend, so I think this will be a book I come back to often.
