As everyday white supremacy becomes increasingly vocalized with no clear
answers at hand, how best might we approach one another? Claudia
Rankine, without telling us what to do, urges us to begin the
discussions that might open pathways through this divisive and stuck
moment in American history. Just Us is an invitation to discover what
it takes to stay in the room together, even and especially in breaching
the silence, guilt, and violence that follow direct addresses of
whiteness. This brilliant arrangement of essays, poems, and images is
Rankine's most intimate work, less interested in being right than in
being true, being together.
