About this audiobook
Why are white supremacists still openly marching in the United States? Why are undocumented children of color separated from their families and housed in cages? Where did racism come from? Why hasn’t it already disappeared? And
what can young people do about it?

create a more inclusive world, sociologist Crystal Fleming shares the knowledge and values that unite all antiracists: compassion, solidarity, respect, and courage in the face of adversity.

- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5A history and guide for teens on fighting white supremacy and how to work towards anti-racism. The author presents white supremacy as a table supported by four legs: colonization, Indigenous genocide, capitalism, and transatlantic slavery. Fleming goes on to provide historic overviews that illustrates the legs of the table and how each has contributed to the formation of the racist systems we see today and the continued impacts of such. Teens determined to do their part to make the world a better, anti-racist place will go into it well-informed by this book. "White supremacy is the social, political and economic dominance of people socially defined as white." "Racial groups are social, cultural, and political constructions--not biological realities."
