Hello all. Monday is the third anniversary of the publication of WHY I& #39;M NO LONGER TALKING TO WHITE PEOPLE ABOUT RACE. I was going to save saying some thing until then, as I& #39;m on a social media hiatus, but urgent circumstances have drawn me back.
Because of the past week& #39;s horrible and tragic events, I& #39;ve noticed a marked uptick in people recommending my book. I& #39;m asking everyone who buys a copy to please match however much you bought it with a donation to the @MNFreedomFund
Better yet, borrow a copy from a friend/your local library and donate what you would have spent to @MNFreedomFund. This book financially transformed my life and I really don& #39;t like the idea of personally profiting every time a video of a black person& #39;s death goes viral.
I will be making a donation to @MNFreedomFund today and will do so again when I receive my royalty payment for this quarter.
If you& #39;re going to buy a copy, please order from your local independent bookshop (let& #39;s keep them going during this pandemic) and also donate to your local and national racial justice organisations, if you can spare the funds. Thanks everyone.
You can follow @renireni.
