This is a must-read. Ta-Nehisi Coates pens a beautiful, heart-wrenching letter to his son growing up in a world where skin color effects the trajectory of your life. Between the World and Me tackles some of the major issues in America, namely, the issue of Race. This book will make you think and reevaluate your world.
