What is "Let's Talk About It" about? Have you ever watched TV and heard them talking about a subject that you cared about and immediately grew frustrated at its content? The discussion rarely covers what it should be about. This is frustrating because people on TV more often than not, set the national narrative. Why are we discussing the victims of police shootings and their background more than we address the background and lives of the officers? Why are we talking about what's going wrong with the war on terror, instead of discussing if a physical war on terror even makes sense? Maybe fighting an ideology with bombs and bullets isn't the best way to combat terror.
Maybe we are all out of touch with the real issues that face us all, and overall are having the wrong conversations? From relationships to politics this book covers it. Telling from the current climate nationally, I believe that a different perspective that's different from what's traditional will be helpful. If we do not change our perspective we will continue to see our cultural progression stagnated and social growth slowed.
Are we really a Nation that is made up of laws or idealogy? Is gay marriage really a threat to the institution of marriage? Are we having an open and honest conversation about race and the American dream as it relates to us all? Are male and female relationships doomed by their differences?
This book will make for an excellent debate and water cooler discussion. It can ignite passions and challenge world views. It will make some people mad, alienate others, be championed by some but will be a welcomed breath of fresh air to all. One thing is sure, everything in this book is a conversation that we all need to have as a society as a whole.
