Baratunde Thurston is the director of digital content at The Onion, the co-founder of Jack & Jill Politics, a stand-up comedian, and a globe-trotting speaker. He was named one of the 100 most influential African-Americans of 2011 by The Root and one of the 100 most creative people in business by Fast Company magazine.
How to Be Black, published just in time for Black History Month 2012, is part memoir, part satire, and part guide to the complexities of racial relationships in America. Very funny, often poignant, and always thought provoking.
