In Our Shoes

by Brianna Holt

In this fresh exploration of cultural appropriation, wokeness, tone policing, and more, Holt carefully dismantles myths about Black womanhood, allowing readers to assess their biases while examining the roles Black millenial women are forced to take on simply to survive.

Through nine thoughtful chapters—such as "Leave the Box Braids for the Black Girls" and "Why Are You So Dark?"— laced with searing commentary, nuanced reportage, personal anecdotes from Holt's own life, and interviews conducted with "everyday" Black women, creating a thought-provoking book that helps readers to learn, empathize, reflect, and, most important, act.
