Anti-Racism As Daily Practice: A Reading with Jen Harvey, in conversation with Melanie Morrison (via Zoom)

“An essential book of practical wisdom…. If you’re white and have been asking, ‘What can I do now?’ this lively and timely book is for you.”
―Robert Jones, New York Times bestselling author of The Hidden Roots of White Supremacy

Antiracism as Daily Practice illustrates the many ways white Americans can choose behaviors in our everyday lives to grow racial justice. Full of real life stories, this book shows how vital it is for white people to engage in and with our families, through our social networks, in our neighborhoods, and at our jobs to make antiracism a daily living commitment. We have real power in our relationships with other white people–and not enough of us have used it. Dr. Harvey explains why we white people struggle with knowing what to do about racism, and explores the significance of emotions like grief and anger (as well as the harmful role of shame) in reckoning with the transformation and change needed in our communities to become the partners in justice that Black communities and other communities of color need and deserve.
