Start Antiracism Now: Know Antiracism, Why You Want It, and How to Take Immediate Action
Publisher Description
"Anti-racism is a lifestyle. It is a continuous and consistent effort to fight racism."
New book from author Michael K. Brown with exclusive foreword by Stephen Lombardi.
Racism is nurture; it is a mindset that starts getting developed during childhood. For one to commit a racist crime or express prejudice openly at some point in their life, a lifetime of learning to discriminate is required. No one is born racist; one's nurture, or what one learns as they grow up and the way they see the world around them throughout their life gives rise to a racist mindset. Given that anti-racism is the antithesis of racism developing an anti-racist mindset too has similar nuts and bolts.
One of the most important themes of this book is that, contrary to common belief, being an anti-racist is not a one-time qualification for life.
This book is a simple and straightforward guide to anti-racism.
