Just finished your book, White Too Long. Thank you for your book and for your thoughts on the singing of Lift Every Voice at the Super Bowl. I am in a reading and writing program called Facing Racism, One White Woman at a Time. It is our final book of seven. It was the perfect book to end with. It resonated with me on two levels: civically and personally. I believe our country must face the truth of its racist foundation in order to survive and I was raised Catholic. Starting in the 70s three of my eight siblings became born again and frustrating to live with. Only one is still practicing (she from time to time she tells me she feels sorry she will not meet me again in heaven). Your clear thinking and thoughtful writings give me courage and hope and a way to better express myself (with love) in my struggles to be a good citizen and sister--fighting for justice in both realms. I am glad I am now a subscriber to your Substack so I can learn more.
Beautifully and thoughtfully written. Thank you, Robby.
