Heartbreakingly relevant. Devastatingly relevant. It's awash with highlights that could have been written this week.

And perhaps the most soul-rending: When he quoted W.E.B. Du Bois, 60 years on. 120 years on, STILL RELEVANT.

Had we grown, this would feel like a relic. #FireNextTime⬇️ #SBBC

More than 60 years since it was first published, how relevant is The Fire Next Time by James Baldwin to today?

Right? How enraging is that? How outlandishly unjust?

And it's not that the truth isn't available.

He even provides the tools for HOW white people can start to address injustice.

But instead, they ban the book.
