I went to a book discussion with some friends when I was out of town, and so I read the pertinent chapters. I asked a good friend of mine what she thought of this because I didn't think it was that great (I've read a lot of excellent things about race in the last few years); she commented that she thought it was a good starting point for churchgoing folk who don't believe that colorblindness is a problem, and therefore are unlikely to pick up other books on race. I can absolutely see that.
I only read part 1, and returned it to the library. Some of the chapters felt very heavy-handed, and I hated the device of Adams inventing a Black man to be killed by police as an impetus for all these conversations.
