His story and perspectives start off great, with vivid descriptions and convictions..... Then, I'd say, in the later half of the book, he goes off the rails with a overconfident optimism; no actual factual data--just what he feels. He criticizes the arrogance of humanity, yet his gleams through in his book.
Trite as it may be, I will comment on this: He is a techie, yet clearly claims the main protagonist in the game Portal(2007) was the first female in a mainstream video game. Minute mistake, I know, but one must wonder what other small details may he overlooked or been incorrect on?

The first half was worth the listen. The rest of the book is terrible.

Great story. Enjoyed the narration, easy to listen to like the author's YouTube channel.

The combination of stoicism and Taoism works really well. One of the best audio books I've listened to on stoicism. Though I will continue to practice being a stoic, I now want to know more about the ways of Tao.

Valid points made, but contradictory as well...

While Kimberly Jones accurately elaborates on the bad/racist history of this country, she barely shines light on the good this country has done.

She, as anyone should, loathes the negative stereotypes of Black people, but proceeds, consistently, to stereotype all White people.

She labels capitalism as a corrupt system in need of reform, yet has her books on sale via Amazon...... A company only possible due to the freedom capitalism allows.

Good historical info within the book, but the contradictions are quite numerous.
