Description
The Spanish edition of Claudia Rankine's (Citizen) new, acclaimed, genre-bending reflection on whiteness in America. "A skyscraper in the literature on racism." --Christian Science Monitor
"Rankine [is] helping America understand itself, one conversation at a time." --Associated Press NAMED A BEST BOOK OF 2020 by The New York Times, Time Magazine, NPR, Esquire, The Guardian, O Magazine, Ms. Magazine, Star Tribune, St. Louis Post Dispatch, Christian Science Monitor, Kirkus Reviews, and Publishers Weekly
As everyday white supremacy becomes increasingly vocalized with no clear answers at hand, how best might we approach one another? Claudia Rankine, without telling us what to do, urges us to begin the discussions that might open pathways through this divisive and stuck moment in American history. Just Us is an invitation to discover what it takes to stay in the room together, even and especially in breaching the silence, guilt, and violence that follow direct addresses of whiteness. This brilliant arrangement of essays, poems, and images is Rankine's most intimate work, less interested in being right than in being true, being together.
