Michelle Obama Instagram – There’s something about @Michele__Norris that just draws people in. As a dear friend of mine, she is someone who I’ve always been able to turn to for an honest and real conversation, no matter what. So when she started The Race Card Project over a decade ago to have an open dialogue surrounding race in this country, I knew it would amount to something powerful. So much has happened since then. We’ve faced some challenging moments together as a nation, but we’ve all learned a lot about one another, too. Her new book, Our Hidden Conversations, is a testament to that journey. Featuring photos and stories on race from people all over America, it highlights the truths of the American experience — and shares everything, even the messy bits. It’s an incredible read, and I hope you’ll check it out. Michele, I’m so proud of you. Congratulations on making The New York Times Best Seller list!
