Dear White People: A Guide to Inter-Racial Harmony in "Post-Racial" America

In the satirical tradition of the New York Times bestseller Stuff White People Like comes this witty companion book to the â€œincredibly entertainingâ€ (Indiewire) film of the same name, which â€œheralds a fresh and funny new voiceâ€ (Variety).

Right out of college, Justin Simien wrote a screenplay about the nuanced experiences of four black students on a predominantly white college campus. The film, Dear White People, garnered a Sundance Award for â€œBreakthrough Talentâ€ and has been hailed by critics everywhere. Channeling the sensibility of the film into this book, Simien will keep you laughing with his humorous observations, even if you havenâ€™t seen the satiric film.

News Flashâ€”the minimum number of black friends needed to not seem racist has just been raised to two. Rather than panic, readers are advised to purchase a copy of Dear White People. Whether you are a dear white person wondering why your black office mate is avoiding eye contact with you after you ran your fingers through her hair, or youâ€™re a black nerd who has to break it to your white friends that youâ€™ve never seen The Wire, this myth-busting, stereotype-diffusing guide to a post-Obama world has something for you!

With decision-making trees to help you decide when itâ€™s the right time to wear Blackface (hint: probably never) and quizzes to determine whether youâ€™ve become the Token Black Friendâ„¢, Dear White People is the ultimate silly-yet-authoritative handbook to help the curious and confused navigate racial microaggressions in their daily lives.

Based on the eponymous, award-winning film, which has been lauded as â€œa smart, hilarious satire,â€ this tongue-in-cheek guide is a must-have that anybody who is in semi-regular contact with black people canâ€™t afford to miss!
