ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK

"Between the World and Me" by Ta-Nehisi Coates is a powerful letter written to his son, Samori, that explores the realities of being Black in America. Coates delves into themes of systemic racism, identity, and the vulnerability of Black bodies in a society structured by injustice. Through personal anecdotes and reflections on history, he examines the legacy of oppression, the quest for dignity, and the impact of police violence on Black communities. The book serves as both a personal narrative and a broader commentary on race, resilience, and the ongoing struggle for justice and equality.
