From the #1 New York Times bestselling author of So You Want to Talk About Race and Mediocre, this work offers a galvanizing examination of anti-racist activism in America today. Ijeoma Oluo previously provided essential guidance on discussing race and racism and explored the legacy of white male supremacy in shaping American culture and systems. Now, she addresses a crucial question: What can we do to combat these oppressive structures? In this book, Oluo showcases how individuals across the nation are striving for meaningful change in various systems, including education, media, labor, health, housing, and policing, all aimed at achieving intersectional racial equity. She emphasizes actionable steps for readers to engage in these efforts, encouraging them to adapt successful initiatives from other regions to their local contexts. The goal is to educate while inspiring action, transforming discussions about race from a focus on pain and trauma to one of proactive, loving engagement. This work serves as both a vital account of a pivotal historical moment and a motivating call to arms for those seeking to effect change in their communities.
