In the United States, the color of your skin can have a profound impact on your life expectancy, your health, your education, and your economic opportunities. Living and Dying While Black in America is a powerful and eye-opening book that exposes the stark disparities faced by Black Americans throughout their lives, from cradle to grave.

Drawing on extensive research and personal narratives, the author paints a vivid picture of the challenges faced by Black Americans at every stage of life. From the disproportionate rates of infant mortality and maternal deaths to the higher rates of chronic diseases and premature death, the book reveals the systemic racism that is embedded in our healthcare system.

The book also explores the ways in which racism affects Black Americans' education and economic opportunities. Black children are more likely to attend underfunded schools and live in poverty, which can have a lasting impact on their ability to succeed in life.

It is a powerful and moving book that will open your eyes to the challenges faced by Black Americans and inspire you to work for a more just and equitable society.
