ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK

“This Is the Fire” by Don Lemon is a powerful exploration of racism in America, blending personal anecdotes with a critical analysis of systemic injustice. Through his own experiences as a Black man in the media, Lemon addresses the deep-rooted inequalities faced by people of color, particularly Black Americans. The book examines the historical and present-day impact of racism, including the role of law enforcement, the media, and economic systems in perpetuating racial divides. Lemon calls for collective action, urging individuals, especially white Americans, to actively challenge and dismantle these oppressive structures for real, lasting change.
