In an era marked by heightened racial tensions, the need for constructive and anti-racist conversations has become imperative. These conversations have the potential to break down barriers, cultivate empathy, and pave the way for a more just and equitable world.
In the groundbreaking book "How To Have Antiracist Conversations That Bring Us Together," author and renowned sociologist Anthea Butler offers a practical guidebook for navigating these crucial discussions. With a wealth of insights, tools, and real-life examples, Butler empowers readers to engage in transformative conversations that foster understanding, bridge divides, and ultimately lead to meaningful social change.
