Summary
As the country grapples with racial division at a level not seen since the 1960s, one man's voice is heard above the rest. In his New York Times op-ed piece "Death in Black and White," Michael Eric Dyson moved a nation. Now he continues to speak out in Teas We Cannot Stop - a provocative and deeply personal call for change. Dyson argues that if we are to make real racial progress we must face difficult truths, including being honest about how black grievance has been ignored, dismissed, or discounted. In the tradition of James Baldwin's The Fire Next Time - short, emotional, literary, powerful - this is the book that all Americans who care about the current and long-burning crisis in race relations will want to read. --, From dust jacket
