Tears We Cannot Stop: A Sermon to White America | Michael Eric Dyson

I have so many post-it flags in this book. I‘ve finished and am trying to digest how to review something that feels so powerful to me. #racialjustice #michaelericdyson #resistlist

ptkpepe98 I listened to this, and loved it. I can imagine how much annotation my copy would have! 6y

BarbaraTheBibliophage @ptkpepe98 I‘d love to hear his emphasis and intonations on the words. There are advantages each way! 6y

Tears We Cannot Stop: A Sermon to White America | Michael Eric Dyson

“Real American history is the sticky web in which black and white are stuck together.”

But read the whole passage above that, starting with “Liberal professor ...”

Susannah I love this idea of white people having to reckon with black people because we are all stuck together. It's hardly ideal, but whatever it takes for that reckoning to happen.... Hatred is so exhausting. 6y

BarbaraTheBibliophage @Susannah If this part draws you, I think the rest of the book will as well. We are in their world and vice versa, to the extent that even saying we and they is incorrect. 6y

Susannah Thank you so much for letting me know. I think I might have this ebook, but I need to check. I'm definitely bumping this book to the top of my TBR. 6y

BarbaraTheBibliophage @Susannah I struggled at bit at the beginning, but then it clicked and started to really hit me in the gut like I expected. Looking forward to hearing what you think when you get to it! 6y

TieDyeDude Amazing book! So important, so much to digest 6y

Libby1 This book isn't released in the UK until the end of this month but it's on my list. 7y

BellaBookNook I added this when I saw you talking about it on YouTube. First I need to make it thru tomorrow's inauguration for I feel more depression coming. But once I gain footing again I'll put this one on hold at the library. 7y

BrownGirlReading @Libby1 👌🏾 7y

BrownGirlReading @BellaBookNook Hey Belinda! I made it through by not watching the train wreck. I predict he'll be out within the next 6 months.😒 7y

BellaBookNook I didn't watch either. I donated to the ACLU and read my books all day. I hope your prediction comes true. 7y
