About this audiobook
Rather than endure the conflict of racial realities, many people choose instead to avoid the topic altogether, or remain silent when it is raised. Race Talk and the Conspiracy of Silence: Understanding and Facilitating Difficult Dialogues on Race puts an end to that dynamic by sharing strategies for smoothing conversations about race in a productive manner.
A guide for facilitating and participating in difficult dialogues about race, author Derald Wing Sue-an internationally recognized expert on multiculturalism, diversity, and microaggressions-explores the characteristics, dynamics, and meaning behind discussions about race as well as the hidden "ground rules" that inhibit honest and productive dialogue. Through emotional and visceral examples, this book explains why conversations revolving around racial issues are so difficult, and provides guidelines, techniques, and advice for navigating and leading honest and forthright discussions. Listeners will develop a stronger ability to build rapport with people unlike themselves, and discover how not talking about race impacts society as a whole.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5I read this previously as part of some professional development workshops in a university setting, and this book was helpful in thinking about my approaches and (dis)comfort with discussing race with peers and students, as well as ways to push myself and colleagues toward constructive conversations that recognize and address race, where appropriate.
