    Must read. You can't live today and not explore your race and the privileges or shortcomings that have come with it.

    This book was great from beginning to end. Wise really tackles white privilege and doesn't hold any punches. I'd recommend this book to all those living in a bubble, as well as those who think there on the outside.
