Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - With the razor-sharp, late-night comedic timing of a Ziwe interview and the pop-culture fluency of an NPR podcast, Black Friend is a hilarious, unapologetic dissection of modern tokenism.What does it actually feel like to be 'the Black friend' in a predominantly white world-and how do you navigate that role without losing yourself In Black Friend, comedian and cultural critic Ziwe turns her signature fearless questioning inward, unpacking the awkward, revealing, and often uncomfortable moments that shape how race operates in everyday life. Through sharply observed essays, she explores identity not as theory, but as something negotiated in conversations, friendships, and public spaces.If you've ever found yourself unsure how to talk about race-or felt the pressure of being the only person of your background in a room-these essays meet you there. Ziwe captures the kinds of interactions many people avoid: the offhand comment that lingers, the social misstep that reveals more than it should, the expectation to educate others.Blending personal narrative with cultural commentary, Ziwe moves between humor and tension with precision. A mistaken identity on a stadium jumbotron, a moment of fear in an unfamiliar environment, a conversation that goes sideways-these are not isolated anecdotes, but entry points into broader questions about tokenism, performance, and belonging. The result is a collection that is as entertaining as it is disarming.Black Friend is for readers who want more than surface-level takes on identity. It offers a way into difficult conversations-through honesty, specificity, and humor-while challenging the roles we assign to one another in social and cultural spaces. Whether you are trying to understand your own position or better engage with others, this book creates a starting point that feels real, current, and necessary.…

Alecos Papadatos, the artist behind the critically acclaimed, award-winning, bestselling graphic novel Logicomix, and Tassos Apostolidis, an author and teacher, team up to bring his story to life, following the trail of clues to paint a picture of the great man and his philosophy. The son of a renowned Macedonian physician, Aristotle pursues his studies in Athens and becomes one of Plato's favorite disciples. A great scholar, he even serves as Alexander the Great, Ptolemy, and Cassander's personal tutor. For many, that would be the high point of their career, but Aristotle goes on to found his own school, the Lyceum.
