HOW TO RAISE AN ANTIRACIST

Listeners to the antiracist scholar's latest audiobook will be struck by his vocal grace and passion for his mission to use his experiences of racism as a spouse and an expectant father to help others learn how to prevent its pernicious effects on children. His vocal urgency and use of strategic pauses make his heartfelt perspectives ring with clarity and meaning. In a message aimed at parents, educators, and care providers, he says our culture overlooks the less obvious ways African-Americans are shortchanged, underestimated, and denied the care and respect that white people take for granted. With revealing research studies and startling examples of such injustices, he describes how children can resist accepting the stereotypes and cultural attitudes that continue to diminish Black people.
