Description
Ta-Nehisi Coates' searing account of modern America, from Obama to Trump, explores the intersections of politics, ideology and culture during eight pivotal years in power. Through essays such as 'Fear of a Black President' and 'The Case for Reparations', Coates charts the public's journey through private moments, offering an unflinching look at racial injustice, class warfare and institutional conspiracy. This book is a crucial exploration of America's ongoing struggle with its own identity, one that reflects on the author's personal journey through these eight years. With incisive writing and piercing relevance, Coates presents a radical flux in American society, where hope and criticism coexist alongside growing discontent. Ta-Nehisi Coates is a brilliant and fearless writer whose work is essential to understanding America's complex issues today.
