How To Be An Antiracist, by Ibram X. Kendi: Historian and author Ibram X. Kendi explores how racist ideas had become so engrained in society that those who countered them were considered radical and extreme. By peeling back layers of enculturated racism, Kendi helps readers see what they may not have previously understood. Relying on history, science, law, and ethics, Kendi rouses awareness and takes readers past polarizing arguments toward forming a more just society.
