Know about the book -

White Like Me is written by Tim Wise and published by ReadHowYouWant.com. It's available with International Standard Book Number or ISBN identification 1458780910 (ISBN 10) and 9781458780911 (ISBN 13).

Flipping John Howard Griffin's classic Black Like Me, and extending Noel Ignatiev's How The Irish Became White into the present-day, Wise explores the meanings and consequences of whiteness, and discusses the ways in which racial privilege can harm not just people of color, but also whites. Using stories instead of stale statistics, Wise weaves a narrative that is at once readable and yet scholarly; analytical and yet accessible.
