  — GQ

• “Hughley pulls no punches in this caustic, maddening, and hilarious examination of the current state of race relations in the United States.”

  — Publishers Weekly

• “Hughley makes clear to listeners where his written text offers up sidebars by slightly slowing his pace. He extracts the perverse truth underlying each purported “option” for those who are black with wry bluntness that points up how white advice is uninformed and acknowledges the probability of a black person becoming a statistic no matter their behavior or station. His jaunty approach demonstrates that a good comic performance might raise white consciousness while giving Hughley’s peers some deserved relief through black humor.”
