Between the World and Me

Author: Ta-Nehisi Coates
Stars: 4
Review by: Tara C.


Coates addresses this book to his son to warn him of the difficulties and dangers he will face in life due to his race. It's not a message of hope, but of harsh realities. Coates offers detailed insights into his experiences and reasoning, citing the deaths of Prince Jones, Trayvon Martin, Michael Brown and more. This is short (152 pages), but considering the content, it's a heavy read.
