About this item

Product details

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.

I Highly Recommend This Book

I haven't yet read the whole book, but I like how Mr. Acho explains things so as no delicate white feelings are hurt. I think he deals with the subject in a no nonsense kind of way. His voice is calm, reassuring and he has a way of describing things so everyone can understand.
