I'd Rather We Got Casinos: And Other Black Thoughts

I love the Larry Wilmore show and I heard him mention this book, so I had to read it. It has a lot of laugh out loud moments and is a quick, easy read. Larry pokes fun at black culture and stereotypes of black culture, and of course, himself. It's very representative of the light-hearted comedy and wit you see on his show, and he gently uses that to touch on the serious topic of racial divide in this book. I hope he writes another one in the future.
