Book Reviews of Courageous Conversations About Race: A Field Guide for Achieving Equity in Schools

Book Review: Kill me, now.
Summary: 1 Stars

This book is sooooo repetitive i wanted to die. The entire book was based on assumptions and opinions. I am forced to read this book for one of my classes in college and my peers also disagree with half of the things they say in the chapters. Maybe he has some inner hatred towards the system, i dont know, but i should not be forced to read something so opinionated and inaccurate. Times are changing and schools are changing with it without the "help" of this book. Do not make students read this, unless you want to torture them. If i have to hear the words "racial gap" and "i dont know what i dont know" one more time, im going to set the book on fire and roast marshmallows over its flame.
