À propos de cet audio

In this "vital book for these times" (Kirkus Reviews), Don Lemon brings his vast audience and experience as a reporter and a Black man to today's most urgent question: How can we end racism in America in our lifetimes?

The host of CNN Tonight with Don Lemon is more popular than ever. As America’s only Black prime-time anchor, Lemon and his daily monologues on racism and antiracism, on the failures of the Trump administration and of so many of our leaders, and on America’s systemic flaws speak for his millions of fans. Now, in an urgent, deeply personal, riveting plea, he shows us all how deep our problems lie, and what we can do to begin to fix them.

Beginning with a letter to one of his Black nephews, he proceeds with reporting and reflections on his slave ancestors, his upbringing in the shadows of segregation, and his adult confrontations with politicians, activists, and scholars. In doing so, Lemon offers a searing and poetic ultimatum to America. He visits the slave port where a direct ancestor was shackled and shipped to America. He recalls a slave uprising in Louisiana, just a few miles from his birthplace. And he takes us to the heart of the 2020 protests in New York City. As he writes to his young nephew: We must resist racism every single day. We must resist it with love.

Don Lemon is gracious, informed and insightful. This book is fast paced yet the author braids the ugly past, the current circumstances with action and hope for the future. I am a Canadian and racism in Canada is subtle but part of colonialism and facing it ...naming it is key. Great narration.

as a person who is gay whose father was an African born in Africa 1947 immigrated to America in 1949 my mother indigenous First Nations Canadian I've always felt alone I've always felt the sting of racism it's left a heavy sting of anger in my heart listening to this book has renewed my will to heal I had seen the strength of somebody else's intersectionality the strength is the ability of the community to heal and not just to heal ourselves but to be able to heal one another thank you very much it's a strong reminder to me I will never be alone -M Jack

I enjoyed reading this book but I noticed how he carefully avoided mentioning his true ancestry. I read that he has a Nigerian/Cameroonian ancestry and he failed to mention that. He essentially joined the band wagon by being absolutely insensitive and generalizing that Africa is a ghetto. Otherwise, its a good read.

I enjoyed reading this book but ........
