A powerful and provocative argument on the role that race and racism play in modern Britain, by award-winning journalist Reni Eddo-Lodge
In 2014, award-winning journalist Reni Eddo-Lodge wrote about her frustration with the way that discussions of race and racism in Britain were being led by those who weren’t affected by it. She posted a piece on her blog, entitled: ‘Why I’m No Longer Talking to White People About Race’.
Her words hit a nerve. The post went viral and comments flooded in from others desperate to speak up about their own experiences. Galvanised by this clear hunger for open discussion, she decided to dig into the source of these feelings.
Exploring issues from eradicated black history to the political purpose of white dominance, whitewashed feminism to the inextricable link between class and race, Reni Eddo-Lodge offers a timely and essential new framework for how to see, acknowledge and counter racism. It is a searing, illuminating, absolutely necessary exploration of what it is to be a person of colour in Britain today.

Man, will that victim mentality ever die? 2K years from now will they still be talking about how (like every other race at different points in history) their ancestors were slaves and they’re being discriminated against?

Thank you for the upload! Everyone else, STAY MAD.

What race? Its all absurd.. I just do not understand the over the hill on the other side of that mountain mentality. As far as I am aware, there is only one race of people on this planet and apparently a large number of us are idiots.
Its actually kinda sad that we are alone so far..

Amen
no more reparations nagging. may more people stop talking!

A book full of underlying hate and racist prejudice against white people. Why would, such a despicable text is allowed to be published is beyond me.
It starts with its title, which is offensive enough, and gets worse from there.
If you want to see what the real racism is, read this book.

Well if nothing else it’s nice to know that it’s not only the US that has a problem with bad neo-marxist black racist nut jobs.

I’m sure all of the negative comments above (and probably below) were written by people who literally are judging the book solely by its (deliberately provocative) title, without reading a word of it. Thus pretty much proving the author’s thesis: talking to those who refuse to listen is pointless.

This is a piece of vanity-publishing built around an incendiary blog post and the flame war it inspired. A full 300-meter neo-liberal freestyle whimpering hissy-fit, flinging self-satisfied Take Thats at mental phantoms that exist almost entirely in the mind of the author and her sheltered, privileged ilk, while the rest of us regular people out in the real world do what we’ve always done and simply get along with our neighbors whatever their “color”.
There is no enlightenment here, only latent anger, and it deserves to be on a pirate site like this if only to deprive the so-called writer of their attempt at underserved profiteering off mental division and thought policing.

Just to be clear: I’m not saying there isn’t such a thing as racism or structural racism. There is.
What I’m saying is that chucking spears at the fashionable devil du-jour of White People, as if the whole world would suddenly erupt into universal love if only those Goddamn White People would Learn A Few Things (or maybe Just Die), is not a solution or even a path to a solution. It is a sideshow.

Please check out my new book… “Why Im no longer listening to black people talk whine about race”
June 21st, 2017
first off,thank you for the upload. no matter the content It’s always good to support these uploaders.now I see so many negative comments about this book. I’m sure it’s a steaming pile of nonsense like most books like this but TBH it’s really nice to see someone use their useless racial studies degree for something other than handing me my coffee at Starbucks.

u mad bro? huh? you mad? lolol calm down dude pepe totes rulez!

All these triggered white people.

The fact that books like this can get published proves that there is no vast anti-black or pro-white conspiracy. If there was, then you wouldn’t be hearing about it.

Every single person who complained about this book has made me want to listen to it all the more. Thank you, White supremacists!
September 12th, 2017
I’ve noticed most of the negative reviews don’t actually talk about the book itself but rather they seemed to read the title of the book, and just jumped on the band wagon about how all black or poc’s just wine about racism. Well I don’t hear any other minorities complaining about when a new book that talks about issues that greatly impacted them talk about how “sick” they are about hearing about what happened in the past and how we should drop it…

The people who enjoy this book paint everyone they disagree with as supremacists

Is this anything more than what it appears to be, a racist anti-white polemic masquerading as social commentary? From the very title, the tone seems to be defensive and condescending and projects a victim mentality. If anyone has listened to it, please tell me if it’s more than that first impression.
January 14th, 2018
Could it be possible that the title is what it is to make white people feel the same way poc feel when discussions of race are mainly lead by white people and the negative feelings you’re expressing here are the same felt by millions of people about something which effects them far more than it does you?

Thanks for sharing! Will start listening to it right after I finish White Fragility

Do I need to listen to this book?
The comments here seem to completely answer the question.
July 24th, 2020
thanks for sharing this upload!
good book. it’s the negative comments above that is the reason for these books existing and why such a title was used. the author isn’t bothered with ppl so sensitive as to chuck a tanty over the title, it’s smart.
the author expresses her appreciation for and is targeting those that are trying to understand about racism, it’s insidious effects, the lost opportunities to genuinely address it and the small groups that drive the divide in the UK.

good book!
another good book about the effects of this over represented white system - The New Jim Crow (Michelle Alexander)
March 14th, 2021
I am completely amazed how many white supremacists and unreconstructed racists there are floating about on the Internet. Very quiet in real life though - they’d get short shrift if they came out with any of this f2f with normal people.
Thanks for the upload.

Big thanks! Racists - stay butthurt <3

Maybe we should all prelude our answers with:
I read the book and …
I did not read the book but …
