Book description
"A hard-hitting resource for action and change." --Booklist (starred review) "We don't see color." "I didn't know Black people liked Star Wars!" "What hood are you from?" As a student in a largely white high school, Frederick Joseph often simply let wince-worthy moments go. When he grew older, he saw them as missed opportunities to stand up for himself and bring awareness to those who didn't see the hurt they caused. Here, Joseph speaks to the reader as he wishes he'd spoken to his friends, unpacking hurtful race-related anecdotes from his past and sharing how he might handle things differently now. Each chapter also features the voice and experience of an artist or activist, including Angie Thomas, author of The Hate U Give; April Reign, creator of #OscarsSoWhite; and Jemele Hill, sports journalist and podcast host. From cultural appropriation to power dynamics, "reverse racism" to white privilege, this book is a conversation starter, tool kit, and window into the life of a former "token Black kid." Back matter includes an encyclopedia of racism, including details on historical events and terminology.
