This celebration of Black resistance, from protests to art to sermons to joy, offers a blueprint for the fight for freedom and justice -- and ideas for how each of us can contribute

Many of us are facing unprecedented attacks on our democracy, our privacy, and our hard-won civil rights. If you're Black in the US, this is not new. As Colorlines editors Akiba Solomon and Kenrya Rankin show, Black Americans subvert and resist life-threatening forces as a matter of course. In these pages, leading organizers, artists, journalists, comedians, and filmmakers offer wisdom on how they fight White supremacy. It's a must-read for anyone new to resistance work, and for the next generation of leaders building a better future.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"A timely and important work to support, educate, nourish, and sustain us all in resisting the lethal effects of white supremacy."—Kimberlé Crenshaw, Professor Law, Columbia Law School and University of California, Los Angeles

"How We Fight White Supremacy is a brilliant, beautiful, and politically urgent text. This carefully curated collection masterfully explores the nuances, contours, and contradictions of a world in which Whiteness continues to define our social reality. Moving beyond rigid analysis or self-indulgent storytelling, this book offers us an impressive range of academic, political, and personal takes on White supremacy. More importantly, the book gives us permission to dream, think, organize, and struggle for a world outside of it."—Marc Lamont Hill, author of Nobody: Casualties of America's War on The Vulnerable from Ferguson to Flint and Beyond

"How We Fight White Supremacy is the primer America needs right now! White supremacy is hardly new, but each generation needs to be reminded of the strategies of resistance and resilience that have made African American struggle so powerful and effective. Every American who cares about protecting the future of our country against the inhumanity of racist oppression should read this book today!"—Michael Eric Dyson, New York Times bestselling author of What Truth Sounds Like

Brilliantly Necessary...

... despite being in a space to embrace everything I can find around CRT, I think this book is so well-written and some well-conceived in the diaspora of Black experience that it is accessible by any independent 16 year old and beyond. A river of work addressing a question with many tributaries to engage and fight. No one right answer or best way but it is clear that the dismantling will occur from all fronts. Personally the pieces around Black Liberation Theology have me re-examing my struggle with the church and community I grew up in and how to help others reclaim an authentic liberation experience. Great read....

Soul touching

Loved the positive and uplifting vibe stories and pair that with the narrative performances?! Well done

Awesome

This was wonderful. I will read this again and again. This was written by and for black people.

A holistic challenge white supremacy

I appreciate this book for bringing together so many diverse voices and perspectives detailing how to resist and challenge white supremacy on all levels

Inspiring & entertaining.

I really enjoyed this audiobook. At times it felt heavy and other times funny, but was always entertaining. Overall, it was uplifting and makes me feel hopeful.
