-Titulo Original : Youll Never Believe What Happened To Lacey Crazy Stories About Racism
-Fabricante :
Grand Central Publishing
-Descripcion Original:
*NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER**INDIE NEXT PICK**A LIBRARY JOURNAL BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR*Writer and performer on Late Night with Seth Meyers Amber Ruffin writes with her sister Lacey Lamar with humor and heart to share absurd anecdotes about everyday experiences of racism. Now a writer and performer on Late Night with Seth Meyers and host of The Amber Ruffin Show, Amber Ruffin lives in New York, where she is no ones First Black Friend and everyone is, as she puts it, stark raving normal. But Ambers sister Lacey? Shes still living in their home state of Nebraska, and trust us, youll never believe what happened to Lacey.From racist donut shops to strangers putting their whole hand in her hair, from being mistaken for a prostitute to being mistaken for Harriet Tubman, Lacey is a lightning rod for hilariously ridiculous yet all-too-real anecdotes. Shes the perfect mix of polite, beautiful, petite, and Black that apparently makes people think I can say whatever I want to this woman. And now, Amber and Lacey share these entertainingly horrifying stories through their laugh-out-loud sisterly banter. Painfully relatable or shockingly eye-opening (depending on how often you have personally been followed by security at department stores), this book tackles modern-day racism with the perfect balance of levity and gravity. Review The book is a portrait of one person’s struggle to maintain dignity, strength and self-respect when faced with injustices small and large-all told with Ruffin’s irreverent, sardonic style. People“This timely and timeless book is hilarious, insightful, aggravating and comforting in equal measure.” SalonLaughter is absolutely healing...[Youll Never Believe What Happened to Lacey] reminds Black women that they can count on each other to understand. PopSugarI dare you to read this hilarious and eye-opening book and not become obsessed with Amber Ruffin. Mindy KalingIf you laugh half as hard as I did at the FIRST story in this book, let alone the rest of the book, you will have gotten your moneys worth. The stories made me laugh and they made me sad. I know Im not the only one to experience these kinds of moments but it helps to know that someone else-poor little Black Lacey taking on the lions share of Nebraskas white ignorance all by her lonesome- experiences it too. From the mental gymnastics needed to call a black store dirty then drive out of state in order to avoid said dirt only to wind up shopping in a sty operating in a white neighborhood to having the gall to try and holluh at black women on a dating app when your profile pics have the confederate flag in them, Amber & Lacey point out how white folks are apparently doing the most in them parts. Retta, comedian andactress (Parks & Recreation, Good Girls)The message of this book is for ALL of us and no matter why YOURE here -- perhaps youre a fan of Amber Ruffins comedy, or a Seth Meyers fan, or a personal friend of Laceys, or maybe youre just a person browsing for a book that will help you understand the Black experience in America and the other ones seem too much like school -- I urge you to BUY THIS BOOK. The stories are delivered with the humor and horror they deserve. You will laugh, you will be enraged, and if you are a white person, you will understand more than you did before about the truth of being Black in America -- even if you thought you understood a lot already because you read the hard school books. Busy Philipps, author, actor,white ladyAmber and Lacey have the gift of making you comfortable enough to laugh at events that will also make you cringe. This book is an opportunity for black people to know youre not alone in how youve experienced the world. And for everyone this book is a chance to see a layer of this world that you might have been blind to. Youll leave both with a laugh and a little more knowledge.
