Review Quotes

At some point everyone will get their own wake up call, but the problem is most people ignore it when it comes. The author of this book answered the call and then some. Thurgood Marshall would've read this book with pleasure! Diversity is key when invoking peace is necessary. Love the undertones of this book which screams out loud how people must take action to end all forms of discrimination. Systemic racism has to end by changing the laws from the inside out. This book sheds light on the deep-seated racism that still exists today.
