Brutal, shackles swapped for handcuffs
Michael Eric Dyson's deeply troubling and brutal sermon on brutality against African Americans is haunting and powerful. A highly detailed account of horrific racism that occurs​ outside of the vacuum. It is a must read for contemporary society.

This book was a cute quick read. This is written all in phone calls so it doesn't go into inner thoughts and things like that. It is like your reading recordings of their calls. Very easy to go through, finished in 4 hours.
