Description
This book isn't about the past. It's about right now. It explores why America is where it is today, examining the construct of race that has always been used to gain and keep power, separating and silencing people. Racist ideas are deeply woven into the nation's fabric, and understanding America's racist past and present is the first step toward building an antiracist future. The narrative reveals how racist ideas began, how they spread, and how they can be discredited.
Through a fast-paced and energizing story, this exploration shines a light on the many insidious forms of racist ideas. It offers ways to identify and stamp out racist thoughts, paving the way for a better future. The history of racist ideas in America, from 1415 to the present, is revealed, explaining their endurance and the possibility of discrediting them.
