Letter /Book Review — Whiteness of Wealth: How the Tax System Improvishes Black Americans-And How We Can Fix It

After reading your book The Whiteness of Wealth: How the Tax System Impoverishes Black Americans — And How We Can Fix it, there is no doubt in my mind that you are who I would need on my side to file a tax complaint against the IRS. I’ve helped my mother and grandmother do their taxes, just like you did your parent’s — James and Dottie Brown’s — taxes.

Your book, The Whiteness of Wealth, is a powerful and groundbreaking read. Your book displays your strong understanding of how racial inequality is built right into the core of American society — the financial system. Your book gives a deep dive into the tax code with incisive data. Your commentary on how race is baked into wealth disparities in America touches close to home…
