Description: Instant NEW YORK Times Bestseller An urgent primer on race and racism from the host of the viral hit video series Uncomfortable Conversations with a Black Man You cannot fix a problem you do not know you have. So begins Emmanuel Acho in his essential guide to the truths Americans need to know to address the systemic racism that has recently electrified protests in all fifty states. There is a fix Acho says. But in order to access it we re going to have to have some uncomfortable conversations. In Uncomfortable Conversations With a Black Man Acho takes on all the questions large and small insensitive and taboo many white Americans are afraid to ask yet which all Americans need the answers to now more than ever. With the same open - hearted generosity that has made his video series a phenomenon Acho explains the vital core of such fraught concepts as white privilege cultural appropriation and reverse racism. In his own words he provides a space of compassion and understanding in a discussion that can lack both. He asks only for the reader's curiosity but along the way he will galvanize all of us to join the antiracist fight.
