Summary:
"Writer and performer Amber Ruffin writes with her sister
Lacey
Lamar with humor and heart to share absurd anecdotes
about
everyday experiences of
racism
. Now a writer, performer, and host of The Amber Ruffin Show, Amber Ruffin lives in New York, where she is no one's First Black Friend and everyone is, as she puts it, "stark raving normal." But Amber's sister
Lacey
? She's still living in their home state of Nebraska, and trust us, you'
ll
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. She's 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."--From publisher.
