SUMMARY:Brendan Kiely Presents The Other Talk: Reckoning with Our White Privilege
DESCRIPTION:Talking about racism can be hard\, but … \nMost kids of color grow up talking about racism. They have “The Talk” with their families – the honest talk about survival in a racist world. \nBut white kids don’t. They’re barely spoken to about race at all – and that needs to change. Because not talking about racism doesn’t make it go away. Not talking about white privilege doesn’t mean it doesn’t exist. \nBrendan Kiely’s The Other Talk: Reckoning with Our White Privilege begins this much-needed conversation for white kids. In an instantly relatable and deeply honest account of his own life\, Brendan Kiely offers young readers a way to understand one’s own white privilege and why allyship is so vital\, so that we can all start doing our part – today. Joining are Brian Knowles and Lisa Seymour\, School District of Palm Beach County. \nGrades 9 – 12
