WHAT WHITE PEOPLE CAN DO NEXT From Allyship to Coalition

Emma Dabiri narrates with the same clarity, thoughtfulness, and directness with which she wrote this guide to going beyond the nebulousness of "allyship" to the action of building coalitions for change. The Irish-Nigerian author delves into the history of racial formation and its corresponding power and legal structures, and advocates for the need to do away with these structures and build new futures. She drives home her message that any attempts to counter racism must not themselves reinforce racial categories, but must imagine beyond the inherited and restrictive systems of oppression. Dabiri's compelling writing; warm, accented voice; and smooth, well-paced delivery combine to capture the listener's attention, making for an audiobook that one will want to return to, and share.
