Resumen del Editor

"Dear white women: please do us all a favor and buy this book....Then READ IT." (Kate Schatz, New York Times best-selling author)

What can I do to help?

This is a question that many seemingly well intentioned White people ask people of color. Yet, it places the responsibility to educate on their peers, friends, colleagues, and even strangers, rather than themselves. If you've ever asked or been asked "What can I do to help combat racism?" then Dear White Women: Let's Get (Un)comfortable Talking About Racism is the answer you're looking for.

From the creators of the award winning podcast Dear White Women, this book breaks down the psychology and barriers to meaningful race discussions for White people, contextualizing racism throughout American history in short, targeted chapters. Sara Blanchard and Misasha Suzuki Graham bring their insights to the table with:

• Personal narratives
• Historical context
• Practical tips

Dear White Women challenges listeners to encounter the hard questions about race (and racism) in order to push the needle of change in a positive direction.

Must read

Everyone should read this book. Everyone should openly discuss the topics in this book. I loved it and have been changed for the better because of it.

Great Content but half unlistenable

I was bummed that the parts narrated by Misasha were so unlistenable. She spoke, in a, staccato, manner, pausingbetween, almost every, word. I couldn't, identify, where one, sentence, ended and, another, began.

Great Read

This was an eye opening experience and a much needed refresher. Thank you for the blood sweat and tears that went into this. I will continue to reference the material as I continue my journey of being anti-racist.
