- Stamped Racism Antiracism and You by Ibram X. Kendi and Jason Reynolds
At a bookseller conference, co-author Jason Reynolds was asked how to describe this book for kids. He said, “it’s the coolest book about racism you’re ever gonna read,” and it is. But this book isn’t just for kids. It’s for adults as well. If you’re new to the concept of antiracism, if you’re having trouble understanding the concepts of racist thought and history and policy in our society then this is the book for you. At the same conference Kendi said he hopes kids – but adults too – walk away with three things after reading this book: (1) that you are able to now see and recognize the inequities and injustices in our society, (2) being able to see that these inequities and injustices are not caused they by what is “wrong” with particular groups of people but rather what’s wrong with power and policies and (3) you can think through the ways in which you can be a part of the struggle against those policies and power.Appropriate for ages 12+.
