Stamped: Racism, Antiracism and You: A Virtual Conversation with Local Educators & Students2021-01-27T19:00:00Read Stamped: Racism, Antiracism and You by Jason Reynolds and Ibram X. Kendi and engage in a virtual conversation with local educators and students.
Register at https://zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_o9rjg22sQaibd-1gNe7Xvw.
Reynolds (Look Both Ways) lends his signature flair to remixing Kendi’s award-winning Stamped from the Beginning into a powerful “not a history book” primer on the historical roots and present-day manifestations of antiblack racism in America. In five sections, Reynolds’s conversational text discusses the influential figures, movements, and events that have propagated racist ideas, beginning in 1415 with the publication of the infamous work that laid the groundwork for subsequent religious justifications of enslaving African peoples and continuing through the “war on drugs” and #BlackLivesMatter...Kendi and Reynolds’s volume is essential, meaningfully accessible reading. ---Publishers Weekly
Hosted by Courageous Conversations and Memorial Hall Library.
