Striving While Black is a personal reflection, a playbook and a portable mentor for African-Americans and others who didn't and don't have the advantage of trailblazers who have gone before them in forging a successful corporate career. Success in corporate America is based on not only what you know - but, as importantly, who you know and who will sponsor you, share information with you as well as advocate for you.

Too short!!

I loved the content but the chapters were way too short. I don't know why or how this was made into a book. It could of been a pamphlet!!

Wallace D. Wattles was an American "New Thought" writer who wrote this amazing little book in 1910. It caused a sensation then, and continues to be popular today. In fact, Rhonda Byrne said that part of her inspriation for her best-selling book and film The Secret came from this book.

This book was so suspenseful that I did not know what was going next. I kept rooting for Stokes but every turn was a close call. I thoroughly enjoyed the narrator Bon Shaw, such an awesome voice!!

I loved the story. It was a little different from what I usually see with the murder mystery novels. The characters are memorable and I even found myself laughing out loud.

Using stories from his own life, Tim Wise demonstrates the ways in which racism not only burdens people of color, but also benefits, in relative terms, those who are "white like him". He discusses how racial privilege can harm whites in the long run and make progressive social change less likely. He explores the ways in which whites can challenge their unjust privileges, and explains in clear and convincing language why it is in the best interest of whites themselves to do so.

SUCH AN IMPORTANT DISCUSSION!!
Revisado: 07-18-16
Tim Wise has done an incredible job with this book trying to explain on behalf of white ppl the way they view themselves in the world. I wish more white ppl would read this book and take the many tips Wise explain as to denounce white privilege and become an ally to blacks in the fight for injustice. If they could realize it doesn't take away anything from you, it add to your life. The world would be a better place for it.

Americans have built an empire on the idea of “race”, a falsehood that damages us all but falls most heavily on the bodies of Black women and men - bodies exploited through slavery and segregation and, today, threatened, locked up, and murdered out of all proportion. What is it like to inhabit a Black body and find a way to live within it? And how can we all honestly reckon with this fraught history and free ourselves from its burden? Between the World and Me is Ta-Nehisi Coates’ attempt to answer these questions in a letter to his adolescent son.

A moving depiction of black in a white world
Revisado: 07-11-16
The way the book is written and read makes you feel like you are overhearing a conversation of a father talking to his son. I like that about this book, it was intimate. The conversation of course is not just about life but how to live life and survive as growing up African-American. it was truly touching.

When author Jeff Hobbs arrived at Yale University, he became fast friends with the man who would be his college roommate for four years, Robert Peace. Robert's life was rough from the beginning in the crime-ridden streets of Newark in the 1980s, with his father in jail and his mother earning less than $15,000 a year. But Robert was a brilliant student, and it was supposed to get easier when he was accepted to Yale, where he studied molecular biochemistry and biophysics.

Heartbreaking!!
Revisado: 04-12-16
Life is all about choices and the readers got to be a fly on the wall when it came to how and why Rob made the choices that he did. The narrator was excellent!! His voice and they way he read the story with such compassion was as if he himself know Rob. The author did an excellent job letting the readers get to know Rob as a person. I really felt as though by the end of the book I was a friend to Rob, he did his friend justice with this autobiography.
