Description
There are so many misconceptions and commonly repeated myths out there in regards to race and in particular black people, that it's hard for many people to know what's true and what is in fact fiction. This book aims to tackle a number of these things from black people being unable to swim to Black people being good at sport due to genetics.
We look at those topics along with others including the concept and idea of 'white genocide', replacement theory, and things like 'missing white woman syndrome'. We look at all of these things as well as giving people a quick run down of some of the most common ideas and beliefs when it comes to talks and discussions on race.
The book attempts to give people a greater understanding and grounding in some of the basics in what can be a challenging and difficult subject, whilst also allowing people to become familiar with some of the reasons why it's important to know about these things.
Whether you're someone who comes to this subject with no prior understanding or whether you are well versed in the field, this book offers something for everyone.
Written in a way that's easy to understand, this book offers facts, and evidence that you would find in a study book, but written with the intention of trying to make it widely accessible to everyone.
From reparations to segregation, from cancel culture to BLM, this book cover a wide range of topics.

Person
The author was born and grew up in West London, the son of two immigrants from Jamaica, who arrived in the UK as part of the
Wind Rush generation.
Growing up in a rich culturally diverse area of
West London, helped shape some of the views and ideas that the author developed
later on in life.
The author studied Sociology, Psychology,
Philosophy and media studies in University, emerging with a Joint hons degree
in Sociology and Media studies.
Fascinated by people and culture the author
describes himself as always trying to understand how and why society works the
way that it does.
Book II, how to talk about race, along with Book
I, were done during the time that the author was living in China with his
partner Nicola.
Three years of research went into the two books
which were originally scheduled to be one single book. But such was the scale
of the material gathered that it quickly became clear that the book would have
to be split into two separate parts.
