Workbook on The Sum Of Us: What Racism Costs Everyone And How We Can Prosper Together by Heather Mcghee (Fun Facts & Trivia Tidbits)
Get a comprehensive overview for The Sum Of Us: What Racism Costs Everyone And How We Can Prosper Together by Heather Mcghee for an immediate in-depth dive into the major themes found in this book.
Self-driving cars, almost infinite storage of knowledge, pocket computers that let us easily connect to the world—we are living in a time of unprecedented technological advancement. Yet even now, a lot of people still ask this age-old question, “Why can’t we have nice things?” American political commentator and strategist, Heather McGhee, is one of them.
Born in the South Side area of Chicago in 1980, Heather McGhee was raised in an era of rising inequality. At an early age, she became concerned in the field of economic policy. Since then, she has devoted her life to resolving the problem of economic inequality and explaining the harmful effects it brings forth. McGhee’s answer to the question “Why can’t we have nice things?” is racial discrimination. However, knowing the “why“ does not end the problem as it is only the first step in building a better nation.
Heather McGhee’s debut book, The Sum of Us: What Racism Costs Everyone and How We Can Prosper Together dives into the roots of racism and tells the story of how the “nice things” that the public should have might still be light-years away from arm’s reach if racial prejudices will be left unchecked. McGhee’s concept of Solidarity Dividend aims to replace the idea of the zero-sum game prevalent in our society. McGhee ultimately wraps up the book with a suggestion on how every person, given the proper education, can help prosper the nation.
