Anti-Racism in the New Century : How Racial Progress Happens Simultaneously with Racist Policies - Part 2

Anti-Racism in the New Century will open your mind to the true origins of racism by challenging your long-held beliefs about it that have been perpetrated by racists throughout history.

When Barack Obama became president of the United States in 2008, many people excitedly speculated that it could be the end of racial discrimination in America. If only it were that easy. Racial discrimination didn't end with slavery or the civil rights movement. And it certainly wasn't over with the election of the first black president. 

The truth is, racism is so deeply ingrained into American society that it will take more than a black president to solve hundreds of years of oppression.

Today we are seeing more progress as we put a spotlight on problems such as police brutality against black people and institutional racism. 

Here are the 3 of the most helpful lessons I got out of this book:
✓ Racism is hard to beat in part because of past political candidates designing their campaigns and running their administrations to appeal to racists.
✓ Most of the statistics around black people are incorrect.
✓ The idea that black people need to take on more personal r
esponsibility is racist.
