Uncomfortable conversations with a black boy / Emmanuel Acho.

Acho, Emmanuel. (Author). Acho, Emmanuel. Uncomfortable conversations with a black man. (Added Author).

Summary:

Approaching every awkward, taboo, and uncomfortable question with openness and patience, Emmanuel Acho connects his own experience with race and racism--from attending majority-white prep schools to his time in the NFL playing on majority-black football teams--to insightful lessons in black history and black culture. Uncomfortable Conversations with a Black Boy is just one way young readers can begin to short circuit racism within their own lives and communities.
