Synopsis Showing My Color by : Clarence Page
Reflecting on changes in the racial landscape since the 1960s and drawing on a depth of personal and private experiences, a Pulitzer Prize-winning columnist for the "Chicago Tribune" reconnects the increasingly abstract political debates about black conservatives, affirmative action, and the "race card" to the people for whom these words mean something more than just votes.

Synopsis White Fragility by : Dr. Robin DiAngelo
The New York Times best-selling book exploring the counterproductive reactions white people have when their assumptions about race are challenged, and how these reactions maintain racial inequality. In this “vital, necessary, and beautiful book” (Michael Eric Dyson), antiracist educator Robin DiAngelo deftly illuminates the phenomenon of white fragility and “allows us to understand racism as a practice not restricted to ‘bad people’ (Claudia Rankine). Referring to the defensive moves that white people make when challenged racially, white fragility is characterized by emotions such as anger, fear, and guilt, and by behaviors including argumentation and silence. These behaviors, in turn, function to reinstate white racial equilibrium and prevent any meaningful cross-racial dialogue. In this in-depth exploration, DiAngelo examines how white fragility develops, how it protects racial inequality, and what we can do to engage more constructively.

Synopsis White Like Her by : Gail Lukasik
White Like Her: My Family’s Story of Race and Racial Passing is the story of Gail Lukasik’s mother’s “passing,” Gail’s struggle with the shame of her mother’s choice, and her subsequent journey of self-discovery and redemption. In the historical context of the Jim Crow South, Gail explores her mother’s decision to pass, how she hid her secret even from her own husband, and the price she paid for choosing whiteness. Haunted by her mother’s fear and shame, Gail embarks on a quest to uncover her mother’s racial lineage, tracing her family back to eighteenth-century colonial Louisiana. In coming to terms with her decision to publicly out her mother, Gail changed how she looks at race and heritage. With a foreword written by Kenyatta Berry, host of PBS's Genealogy Roadshow, this unique and fascinating story of coming to terms with oneself breaks down barriers.

Synopsis The Color of Law: A Forgotten History of How Our Government Segregated America by : Richard Rothstein
New York Times Bestseller • Notable Book of the Year • Editors' Choice Selection One of Bill Gates’ “Amazing Books” of the Year One of Publishers Weekly’s 10 Best Books of the Year Longlisted for the National Book Award for Nonfiction An NPR Best Book of the Year Winner of the Hillman Prize for Nonfiction Gold Winner • California Book Award (Nonfiction) Finalist • Los Angeles Times Book Prize (History) Finalist • Brooklyn Public Library Literary Prize This “powerful and disturbing history” exposes how American governments deliberately imposed racial segregation on metropolitan areas nationwide (New York Times Book Review). Widely heralded as a “masterful” (Washington Post) and “essential” (Slate) history of the modern American metropolis, Richard Rothstein’s The Color of Law offers “the most forceful argument ever published on how federal, state, and local governments gave rise to and reinforced neighborhood segregation” (William Julius Wilson). Exploding the myth of de facto segregation arising from private prejudice or the unintended consequences of economic forces, Rothstein describes how the American government systematically imposed residential segregation: with undisguised racial zoning; public housing that purposefully segregated previously mixed communities; subsidies for builders to create whites-only suburbs; tax exemptions for institutions that enforced segregation; and support for violent resistance to African Americans in white neighborhoods. A groundbreaking, “virtually indispensable” study that has already transformed our understanding of twentieth-century urban history (Chicago Daily Observer), The Color of Law forces us to face the obligation to remedy our unconstitutional past.

Synopsis Our Beautiful World of Colours by : Adanma George
Our Beautiful World of Colours Encourages Diversity and Anti-Racism among Kids We live in a world of many colours. Colours make the world beautiful. From the flowers in the fields to animals big and small, each has a unique colour and every colour is beautiful in its own way. Like everything around us, we humans also have different colours. Some people are dark-skinned while other people are light-skinned. We have a lot in common despite our unique colours. We all laugh and cry. Overall, we feel very sad when the colour of our skin judges us. Our unique colours should be celebrated, not criticized. Our Beautiful World of Colours is an easy guide to help your child understand racial diversity by showing how we have remarkably similar human experiences despite the colour of our skin. This book will help kids understand why no skin colour is superior to another. This book teaches racial equality and encourages kids to speak out against racism. It's not enough to wear anti-racism t-shirts or anti-racism hoodies, the journey to raising an anti-racist human starts with our kids! Kids get to recite a "Colour Pledge" to help them remember always to treat every human equally and respectfully irrespective of their skin colour. If you're looking for books for kids on diversity or books for kids on racism, this is a great read written not just for pleasure but to inspire anti-racist actions in kids. Our Beautiful World of Colours should be part of your kid's library like other popular anti-racist books like Anti-racist Baby by Ibram X. Kendi and It's OK to be Different: A Children's Picture Book About Diversity and Kindness by Sharon Purtill and Sujata Saha. Our Beautiful World of Colours is perfect for any family to discuss together, anti-racial diversity. This book is also a great educational gift for 2 year olds and above. It's a good starter resource for 8 year old boys or girls and other more mature kids on conversations around race, racism, anti-racism, multiculturalism and diversity.
