🚀Book Review of Thriving While Black By: www(dot)IndieReader(dot)com
Rating: 4️⃣/5️⃣

The book is helpful for identifying scenarios in which race might be playing a role, as well as avoiding acts that can feel tokenistic or presumptuous. Anger and emotion, as well as explanation and historical context, are all here. While not quite a seminal book of the genre — there are plenty that provide a deeper and more narrative modern takes on issues that have haunted us for generations — the specific focus of Williams’ THRIVING WHILE BLACK is to serve as an explainer for the specific corporate target audience, and it deserves heavy and considered reading in that context.

A brief, targeted text exploring racism and related stresses faced by Black Americans in corporate environments, Cori J. Williams’ THRIVING WHILE BLACK covers the obvious, but also does a great, fact-led job of exposing the wrought emotional consequences of race issues in the professional world.
