I really enjoyed reading the different angles and stories in this
book on the experiences of being mixed-race in a society where we
are all racialised as white, black or a bit of both ... An
important and welcome addition to the ongoing conversation about
who we are in this society ... current, informative,
thought-provoking.

Educational for even the most racially aware, without being
condescending. A must-read guide for mixed-race families and
relationships
*Tineka Smith, author of 'Mixed Up'*
An essential read. Packed with thought-provoking interviews and
practical advice, Natalie and Naomi have created a necessary piece
of reading not only for those navigating the world as mixed-race
but for us all
*Jaspreet Kaur, author of 'Brown Girl Like Me'*
A powerful and important read. It is one that challenges,
interrogates, inspires and gives you much to think about and lots
to act on. A book for anyone who truly wants to ask difficult
questions of themselves, have deeper conversations with loved ones
or colleagues and responsibly be a part of real change
*Melissa Hemsley, author of 'Feel Good' and 'Eat Green'*
An essential, highly engaging, razor-sharp and deeply thoughtful
body of work. Without reading this you will struggle to properly
understand and appreciate our rapidly emerging future as a
country
*Nels Abbey, author of 'Think Like a White Man'*
The accessible and informative work of @everydayracism_ is
fundamental to creating a better Britain. Read, share, and do your
bit in creating a framework for equality
*Gemma Cairney, author of 'Open'*
Full of wisdom, curiosity, and kindness. Naomi and Natalie touch on
things I've felt my whole life, but never had the language to
articulate myself. It's helped me to see my dual heritage in a new
light, and I know it will be a welcome resource for so many
individuals and families who are struggling to feel that sense of
true belonging
*Ruby Rare, author of 'Sex Ed'*
The book I needed to read. It gave my feelings a place, showed me
that it was okay to take ownership over my racial identity and made
me not feel so alone
*Natalie Alexis Lee, author of 'Feeling Myself'*
Naomi and Natalie are truly inspirational thought leaders
*Sophie Williams, author of 'Millennial Black' and 'Anti-Racist
Ally'*
I felt seen. It gave me the language to say things I've felt for
years, but never knew how to put into words ... but also had me
challenge some of my own views too.
*Tamsin Salfrais, Secret London 'The Best of 2022'*
