How to be an Antiracist by Ibram X. Kendi
Started: Mid-late June-ish 2020

When I started this, I didn’t think about how I’d been tracking all my fiction reading, hence the ambiguous start and end reading dates. I was reading a chapter every morning, because I tend to be bad at staying engaged with non-fiction. I also wanted time to absorb the material I was reading and reflect on it. Staying engaged wasn’t an issue with this book. Kendi frames factual anecdotes with personal narrative in a way that gives this book a nice flow and provides many angles for a reader to connect with what he’s saying. I took a lot from it, and will continue to. I definitely recommend it to anyone who wants to learn.
