“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.
像诗歌一样的文字。A tale about the dreamers and their nation told through the perspective of the oppressed. Lots of deep thoughts and passion.

评分学院里组织读书会讨论这本书……作者花了很大篇幅讲失去身体的恐惧,讲黑人的身体如何被压迫被当成燃料来推动美国的历史进程……这种身体观对我来说非常陌生,因为我的身体观早就被现代医学格式化了,因为我不曾像在巴尔的摩长大的作者那样在7-11门口目睹随意的枪击……不过这一次UA的事情,让我开始想象到那种脖子被人用靴子踩住的压迫感……

评分Institutionalized racism. 不知道是不是我期待值太高。感觉没想象的好,略偏激,略意气用事。本来指望后面能有更成熟更思辨的见解,也未见到。优点是确实powerful, 语句读起来就像念rap, 韵味十足。
很多人心中的美国梦就是民主、自由,有着漂亮草坪的完美别墅,孩子们在自由地玩耍,有树屋、幼童军和野餐旅游,然而美国出生身为美国公民的塔那西斯•科茨在他那本获得美国国家图书奖、美克阿瑟“天才”奖等多项大奖的书籍《在世界与我之间》里却说,这个闻起来有薄荷香味的...
评分 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 ...
