A thing we certainly don’t need in IT / Computer Science (or better: anywhere!) are books containing racist examples 🤬
How on the earth something like this slipped through the book reviews? 🙄
I’m surprised it even has 4.4/5.0 rating on Amazon 😓
And no, I don’t think I’m over reacting.
I asked around to a quite diverse group of friends and they all agreed this is racist.
