What can we do amidst all the controversies over race and gender in society today? Do we have anything constructive to offer the world? As Jesus's followers, we do, and this book shows the way. A dangerous and revolutionary philosophy is responsible for the street fires in America. It fuels the...

Racism can only be defeated if white people educate themselves and actively engage in antiracism work, especially in their inner circles. With this book, you'll learn how to change from someone who defends and protects racism to someone who fights against it. And you'll become an example to others that true allies are made, not born. 

While there are a few short articles and guides addressing the challenges and complexities of leading white affinity groups, there has never been a detailed handbook exclusively for white racial affinity group facilitators. This book is the first in-depth guide for educators, mediators, workplace consultants and trainers, workplace diversity groups, community organizers, conference organizers, members of faith communities, and members of racial and social justice groups.

“The virus exposed how we live and work. It also revealed how we play, and what we lose when we have to stop.” For every kid who makes it to the NBA, thousands more seek out the pleasure and camaraderie of pick-up basketball in their local community centre or neighbourhood park. It’s a story that plays out in sport after sport–team and individual, youth and adult, men's and women's.

Como una suerte de memorias, que van desde la infancia hasta la adultez, Desirée Bela-Lobedde, activista afroespañola, nos cuenta cómo es vivir siendo mujer y negra en España, cómo es sentirse siempre diferente y cómo es ser testigo del racismo que todavía existe en este país. Y lo hace desde el corazón y desde la profunda convicción de que esto puede cambiar y que, finalmente, todos podemos llegar a ser mejores personas si dejamos los prejuicios y la intolerancia de lado.

Racism is omnipresent in American life, both public and private. We are immersed in what prominent Black church leader Willie Dwayne Francois III calls white noise—the racist speech, ideas, and policies that lull us into inaction on racial justice. White noise masks racial realities and prevents constructive responses to microaggressions, structural inequality, and overt interpersonal racism. In this book, Francois calls people of all racial backgrounds to take up practices that overcome silence and inaction on race and that advance racial repair.

Mary Ellen Pleasant and William Henry Ellis. What do these two have in common? They were both former slaves who became millionaires. Back then, Black entrepreneurs had to worry about slave catchers and lynch mobs. Today, “microaggressions” are enough to discourage young Blacks...according to liberals. Our ancestors would be ashamed of us. They would expect more of us. Black Snowflakes provides a brand-new perspective for those Americans who still believe it is impossible for Blacks to be successful unless they get that “White man’s stamp of approval”.

Vorurteile haben wir alle! Mit dieser Erkenntnis und Botschaft geht Marius Jung auf all diejenigen zu, die niemals vorhatten, rassistisch zu sein und gerne wissen möchten, wie sich unbedarfter Rassismus vermeiden lässt. Der erfolgreiche Kabarettist und Bestsellerautor aus Köln kennt die Frage, woher er "eigentlich" komme zur Genüge und hat in seinem Leben immer wieder ausgrenzende Kommentare gehört.

"De unge løver" følger tre mænd, der kæmper hver sin kamp, mens anden verdenskrig hærger verden omkring dem. Østrigske Christian Diestl er tiltrukket af nazismens løfter om en bedre fremtid, og han er villig til at ofre jøderne for at opnå den. Men kan nazisterne holde deres løfte, og vil det være omkostningerne værd for ham? Den amerikanske jøde Noah Ackerman lider under den grove antisemitisme i den amerikanske hær, men aner ikke hvilke rædsler, der kan vente ham, hvis han ender i nazisternes udryddelseslejre.

"Himmelen er blå og luften klar som is, når to fly med kort mellemrum bryder ind i World Trade Center tvillingetårnene i New York. Mens flere millioner kun passivt kan se til, begynder 102 minutters overlevelseskamp for menneskerne i begge dødsfælder." "Massakrer og terror" skildrer nogle af de værste tilfælde i historien.

Two tragedies, the Chinese massacre of 1871 and child prostitution, sum up the troubled—and toxic—relationship between the United States of America and China. A spirited, witty book that exposes many hidden, hideous truths.

En killjoy er ikke bange for at udpege den sexisme, vold og racisme, der findes overalt i vores samfund. Og en killjoy nægter at se til i tavshed for at bevare den gode stemning. I "Killjoy manifest" opstiller feminist Sara Ahmed ti principper eller viljeserklæringer for hvad en killjoy vil (gøre eller være) eller ikke vil (gøre eller være). Sidste del af bogen består af et overlevelseskit for killjoys. Sara Ahmed (f. 1969) er en britisk-australsk akademiker og aktivist.

"Men det værste var, at mama ikke havde andre at betro sig til og øse sin sorg ud over end mig. Alle de gange, hvor jeg sad og læste lektier for den ene bordende i køkkenet, og hun sad og arbejdede ved den anden bordende. Selvfølgelig var hun lige så fortvivlet som jeg. Men mens jeg altid bar det hele for mig selv, kunne hun bedst finde lindring ved at snakke om det. Så hun jamrede og beklagede sig og kunne ikke forstå, hvad hun havde gjort, siden hun skulle straffes sådan.

What does it mean to be white? Beyond just a skin colour, is it also a way of thinking? If so, how did it come about, and why? Drawing on history, personal experience and activist literature, Lilian Thuram looks at the origins and workings of white thinking, how it divides us and how it has become ubiquitous and accepted without challenge. He demonstrates how centuries of white bias and denial justified slavery and colonialism, and have reinforced norms and structures of oppression, limiting the roles and horizons of both non-whites and whites alike.

The War after the War is a lively military history and overview of Reconstruction that illuminates the new war fought immediately after the American Civil War. This Southern Civil War was distinct from the American Civil War and fought between southerners for control of state governments. In the South, African American and white unionists formed a successful biracial coalition that elected state and local officials. White supremacist insurrectionaries battled with these coalitions and won the Southern Civil War, successfully overthrowing democratically elected governments.

From the editor of the award-winning Children of Manzanar, Heather C. Lindquist, and Edgar Award winner Naomi Hirahara comes a nuanced account of the “Resettlement”: the relatively unexamined period when ordinary people of Japanese ancestry, having been unjustly imprisoned during World War II, were finally released from custody. Given $25 and a one-way bus ticket to make a new life, some ventured east to Denver and Chicago to start over, while others returned to Southern California only to face discrimination and an alarming scarcity of housing and jobs.

In Breath Better Spent, DaMaris B. Hill hoists her childhood self onto her shoulders, together taking in the landscape of Black girlhood in America. At a time when Black girls across the country are increasingly vulnerable to unjust violence, unwarranted incarceration, and unnoticed disappearance, Hill chooses to celebrate and protect the girl she carries. Jelly sandals, Double Dutch beats, and chipped nail polish bring the breath of laughter; in adolescence, pomegranate lips, turntables, and love letters to other girls' boyfriends bring the breath of longing.
