68 Things Not to Say to Your Black Friend: An Anti-Racist's Guide to Microaggressions & How They Rea

Every day, well-meaning people say or do hurtful things to their Black friends that sting long after the conversation ends.

These are called microaggressions. Microaggressions seem small, but they can leave lasting damage emotionally, psychologically, and even physically. 68 Things Not to Say to Your Black Friend is the handbook we all wish we had growing up.

This book is for EVERYONE. We are all living in a racially prejudice system, which is why we all have internalized biases. It's not your fault, but it is your responsibility to unlearn them.

Inside, you'll learn the common phrases and behaviors that negatively impact Black people's daily lives: what was said, what it means deep down/how it was heard, and why it matters. Real, relevant examples with no sugar-coating. Why? Because Black people don't get a sugar-coated version of racism.

Grab this book if you're non-Black, but don't stop there. Grab it for friends of all ethnicities, your LGBTQI+ community, your parents, your coworkers, and yes, your Black friends too! This book was made to help us all become anti-racists.

Written by two Black sisters with plenty of experience on the subject, this guide exists to build unity, empathy, and a safer, better world for everyone.

We are all still learning. Start here.
