Great Book! Must read!

Great action items for all whites! As a middle-aged white woman, it is my responsibility to hear these words and act!

Dynamic. Author

While Dr Bellamy is indeed dynamic in bringing his thoughts and wisdom to the national stage, and dynamic in his academia accomplishments, the book work and. Can relate better with young millennials perhaps. For me, a seasoned Professor, I thinkDr Bellamy should have selected an older voice to tell his story. The current young voice is ‘nice’ and in fact, very articulate (which seemingly is rare for many young people, Black white or green). An older voice would lend more authority...and power. The questions posed at the end of each chapter, pedagogical, would be ideal for a middle or high school audience. The chapter questions did not work for me as a life long Educator, current College Professor, and like Dr Bellamy, a PhD. Very good reminders, however, of facts and truths. Dr jj c Taylor, PhD
