This book blended research, data, and story to weave together a compelling but approachable exploration of racism’s impact on health disparities. Absolutely recommend.

Whenever a book has you jotting down notes, names, websites, and historical facts, you know it is more than a book. Villarosa is a fantastic writer that I hope to read often.

I got a lot out of this book and it helped me examine the health care industry and issues face black Americans differently than I had before.
