Citizen

In her thought-provoking audiobook, Claudia Rankine explores the pervasive nature of racial aggressions experienced in everyday life and media throughout the 21st century. Through various scenarios—ranging from subtle slights to overt confrontations—Rankine examines the impact of these encounters on individual identity, voice, and the concept of belonging. She argues that our sense of addressability is intricately linked to our experiences of citizenship and societal expectations.
