Welcome back to the Fake Ass Book Club!! This week the ladies follow up with Amber Ruffin and her sister Lacy Lamar to talk about their new book,"The World Record of Racist Stories"!! Sounds super hilarious, right?! This compilation of real life everyday encounters with racism will make you laugh, cry, and feel kinda uncomfortable. With alarmingly accurate detail and sharp wit, Amber and Lacey manage to entertain, while simultaneously raising awareness that racism isn’t always a cross burning in your yard, but sometimes more insidious. You know...like a lady touching your hair right after microaggression training at work (which explicitly stated it's gross, inappropriate and wrong) and saying "see, that wasn't so bad, was it?"... just whyyyy?! If you want to hear more on how racist stories can be funny and infuriating all at the same time, you're in the right place!! Cheers!!
