From navigating foodie problems to dealing with asshole co-workers, we asked writer and producer Issa Rae for advice based on her new book, The Misadventures of Awkward Black Girl.
Issa Rae is a writer and producer best known for her popular YouTube series, Awkward Black Girl. Since she is such an expert at dealing with socially uncomfortable moments, we figured we'd ask for some pointers.
The following situations are inspired by chapters from her recently published book, The Misadventures of Awkward Black Girl.
