If not the whole book, than the first section should be essential and required reading for anyone in our country. Really lets you live and feel the experience of aggressions. Powerful.
Immediately adding to my “to re-read” shelf. The piece on stop and frisk is particularly wonderful.
Such an important book. Like Ta-Nehisi Coates's Between the World and Me, this book may help readers wake up and at least be aware of what millions experience all the time, day in and day out. Whereas Coates is angry, Rankine seems more exhausted by the experience of racial bias. Everyone should read this.
Citizen, by Claudia Rankine
