There is 1 WL for this book on PBS so will probably post & mail off in the new year. Avoiding post office at this time of the year when possible.

This is the Fire--#116 finished
This is book by former CNN host Don Lemon, published in early 2021. Rest of title is: What I Say to My Friends About Racism. He has a hopeful and optimistic view of things overall but really wants to emphasize racism is still abundantly found in the US. I agree with that and a lot of what he wrote about but like the book Compromised from earlier, I just kept shaking my head about Trump being re-elected. This books seems like was completed before Jan 6th 2021 because that is not mentioned. The hopefulness is I guess from Biden's election. How things have changed. Don Lemon is no longer at CNN being fired for misogynistic behavior. I am guessing his book would sounds a little different but his points on racism still stand and can probably be seen in an even clearer light today.
