Tiffany can't avoid being funny: it's just who she is. But The Last Black Unicorn is so much more than a side-splittingly hilarious collection of essays - it's a memoir of the struggles of one woman who came from nothing and nowhere. A woman who was able to achieve her dreams by reveling in her pain and awkwardness, showing the world who she really is, and inspiring others through the power of laughter.

Laughed 'til I cried!
Revisado: 02-05-25
Tiffany's childhood was rough, Through her story -telling, I could definitely envision and feel whoopings and the fights. I enjoyed how she let her life experiences keep her humble, yet propelled her to grow. Her perseverance was Awesome. I'm currently trying to do that in my life. On another note, I chose to use my earbuds when I listened in my kitchen because the walls are thin in my condo and Tiffany can sure put down "a piece of cuss!" Get the book!

Leslie Odom Jr. burst on the scene in 2015, originating the role of Aaron Burr in the Broadway musical phenomenon Hamilton. Since then he has performed for sold-out audiences, sung for the Obamas at the White House, and won a Tony Award for Best Leading Actor in a Musical. But before he landed the role of a lifetime in one of the biggest musicals of all time, Odom put in years of hard work as a singer and an actor.

Very well done

He has a way with words that made me feel all that he expressed. The love for his craft is palpable and his gratitude is clear. He didn’t do it alone. As I reflect on my life I hope I can be both mentee and mentor within my tribe so we can all fail up. Inspirational. I appreciate it.

In this brilliant book, Isabel Wilkerson gives us a masterful portrait of an unseen phenomenon in America as she explores, through an immersive, deeply researched narrative and stories about real people, how America today and throughout its history has been shaped by a hidden caste system, a rigid hierarchy of human rankings. Beautifully written, original, and revealing, Caste: The Origins of Our Discontents is an eye-opening story of people and history, and a reexamination of what lies under the surface of ordinary lives and of American life today.

Things I never considered
Revisado: 08-14-22
I’ve never considered America as being a cast system. I never considered that my circumstance was due to the American traditions and racial discrimination. I never thought about race being an American and not something world wide. This has opened my eyes to a lot of different things Good and bad. Once you know what’s good and bad you can govern yourself accordingly. It’s sad that just because my skin is chemically different from America’s majority I am considered less or should only aspire to be no higher than the box you put me in. I think this book should be mandatory reading for middle school up through high school. Those are the formative years and perhaps through our children we can change the world. This book was well written, easy to understand, easy to follow and it was worth every minute.
