A review by plantbasedbride
Stamped: Racism, Antiracism, and You by Ibram X. Kendi, Jason Reynolds

challenging informative sad fast-paced

5.0

After taking copious notes (seriously, so many notes) I think I learned more from this "not history book" than I have from any "actual history book" I've ever read. As a Canadian, the low barrier to entry and understanding was much appreciated!  I can only hope that one of our many incredible Black authors north of the border will write their own version of this primer of the evolution of racism over the centuries as it happened in our true north strong and *not really all that* free.

I highly recommend Stamped to everyone, whether you're American or not. There is so much insight into the development of racist ideas and legislation in this tiny book that will open your eyes no matter where you live (or at least, it did so for me).
