Overview

Real conversations about racism need to start now

Let's Talk Race pulls no punches as it examines why white people struggle to talk about race, why we need to talk about race, and what obstacles preclude conversations that promote racial understanding and social action for racial equity.

Written by two specialists in race relations and parents of two adopted African American sons, the book provides unique insights and practical guidance richly illustrated with personal examples, anecdotes, and prompts for personal reflection and conversations about race.

Coverage includes:

  • Seeing the varied forms of racism
  • How we normalize and privilege whiteness
  • Essential and often unknown elements of Black history that inform the present
  • Racial disparities in education, health, criminal justice, and wealth
  • Understanding racially linked cultural differences
  • How to find conversational partners and create safe spaces for conversations
  • Conversational do's and don'ts.

Let's Talk Race is for all white people who want to face the challenges of talking about race and work towards equality.
