Reni Eddo-Lodge is a journalist and author. In 2014 she wrote a blog post titled “Why I’m No Longer Talking To White People About Race”. White people, such as myself have spent a lot of time making demands of People of Colour to discuss race and sometimes when we thought we meant well - asked how to do better rather than doing the research ourselves. Eddo-Lodge set her boundaries with that article and was able to gain more talks in a more genuine manner with people and write this book. Eddo-Lodge breaks down how racism began in Britain with its history roots in slavery and how it permeates today. Although Eddo-Lodge discusses racism particularly in Britain, being the colonising country or the majority of the Western world, these issues can be seen within many colonised countries of Britain such as in so called Australia where I reside and grew up. Eddo-Lodge looks at feminism, intersectionality, the racism fears and more. Eddo-Lodge breaks down ever complex topics, simplified and accessible. If you haven’t read this one yet, I suggest you read it immediately and pair it with Brown Scars, White Tears by Ruby Hamad for the best understanding.
