who let a white lady who just learned that racism exists and is bad write a book blurbed as a “multi-layered reckoning with the legacy of enslavement and racism in america”
#this is about horse by geraldine brooks
#this book is so bad
#it’s about slavery but the main character in the 1800s timeline is an enslaved boy who
#while yes does not like being enslaved. obviously. does love his job and would be doing it even if he were free
#would do it for free even
#it very much gives well not all slavery was as bad
#especially bc there’s a bit where he has a different master for a while and is made to pick cotton
#and literally goes oh well this is terrible but i don’t have it that bad
#geraldine ma’am i really don’t think this is doing what you think it’s doing
#and then there’s a present day timeline which really truly sounds like she’s just learned racism is bad
#it’s so heavy-handed and caricaturised
#and then she also tried to squeeze like seven different issues in there as well
#also the writing is boring and bad who gave this lady a mf pulitzer
