“This is your country, this is your world, this is your body, and you must find some way to live within the all of it.”
In a profound work that pivots from the biggest questions about American history and ideals to the most intimate concerns of a father for his son, Ta-Nehisi Coates offers a powerful new framework for understanding our nation’s history and current crisis. Americans have built an empire on the idea of “race,” a falsehood that damages us all but falls most heavily on the bodies of black women and men—bodies exploited through slavery and segregation, and, today, threatened, locked up, and murdered out of all proportion. What is it like to inhabit a black body and find a way to live within it? And how can we all honestly reckon with this fraught history and free ourselves from its burden?
Between the World and Me is Ta-Nehisi Coates’s attempt to answer these questions in a letter to his adolescent son. Coates shares with his son—and readers—the story of his awakening to the truth about his place in the world through a series of revelatory experiences, from Howard University to Civil War battlefields, from the South Side of Chicago to Paris, from his childhood home to the living rooms of mothers whose children’s lives were taken as American plunder. Beautifully woven from personal narrative, reimagined history, and fresh, emotionally charged reportage, Between the World and Me clearly illuminates the past, bracingly confronts our present, and offers a transcendent vision for a way forward.
Ta-Nehisi Coates is a former staff writer at The Village Voice and Time and has contributed to The New York Times Magazine, The Atlantic, and numerous other publications. He lives in New York City.

评分“they made us into a race, we made ourselves into a people”
评分从头卖惨到底。很难看。
评分就是一篇大作文,乏善可陈。
评分开头立意很不错,怎么后来越来越啰嗦了呢
知道这本书是因为它获得了2015年的美国国家图书奖,这个奖项选出来的书,我看过的几本都还不错,但这一本可能没有那么喜欢。 内容是书信。塔纳西斯用一本书的长度,给自己的孩子写了三封信,信里面贯穿了黑人在美国的历史和生存状况,也非常深刻地融入了自己的情感。深情和痛苦...
评分作为一个国际事务从业者,我曾经满世界跑过,现在在美国暂时安定下来工作。在试图与世界对话的过程中,基本从未因为自己的文化我的种族受到任何歧视或者偏见。但是不可避免的,我也感受过世界之于我的恶意。 第一次出国,每个人都会敏感外国人对自己的态度基于种族或者文化偏...
评分对美国的种族主义了解不多,大部分都还是停留在中学时代所学的美国历史,南北战争,废除奴隶制……现实生活里对种族主义的接触也不多,更谈不上有多深入的感受和理解,总觉得一提起黑人,就是盗窃、抢劫、强奸、犯罪,就是贫穷、困顿、街头小混混……黑人二字,好像自古以来就...
评分Beautifully written. I makes me aspire to talk in this beautiful way (and a bit frustrated, event reticent when I failed to.) The frustration also comes from the harsh reality Coates depicted. I felt dismal after reading the book, by the oblivion of human ...
