The Sum of Us: What Racism Costs Everyone and How We Can Prosper Together by Heather McGhee

challenging hopeful informative inspiring reflective medium-paced

The main theme is that whites have bought into a zero- sum ideology that says the rights  and gains for other groups is a loss to them.  The truth is that whites are hurt by inequality and inequity also.  Greater equity produces dividends of solidarity that uplift everyone.  One of the main ways is to change from disinvesting in public goods that serve everyone and rather build up these public goods so that all can benefit.
