This book changed my mind to see the finer details of privilege and identity. The honest thoughts of the author about her family experiences are touching, and they can lead to the necessary discussions that people are afraid to make. It is a timely book that calls on us to be urgent in making empathy and understanding a priority.
This was a very thought-provoking piece of work that I found very insightful. The author skillfully combines personal accounts and some wider social concerns to make a personal and yet generalized narrative. It made me think about my own prejudices and the privileges that I usually ignore in my life.
A revelatory work that is emotional and critical of systems in society. The narration used by the author is a sympathetic and engaging story. Privilege and Promise is a call to the significance of a comprehensive conversation, which is why it is an essential source for all people who are committed to building understanding and change in their communities.
