Publisher's Summary
The number one New York Times best seller and a USA Today best seller!
A timely, crucial, and empowering exploration of racism - and antiracism - in America
This is NOT a history book.
This is a book about the here and now.
A book to help us better understand why we are where we are.
A book about race.
The construct of race has always been used to gain and keep power, to create dynamics that separate and silence. This remarkable reimagining of Dr. Ibram X. Kendi's National Book Award-winning Stamped from the Beginning reveals the history of racist ideas in America, and inspires hope for an antiracist future. It takes you on a race journey from then to now, shows you why we feel how we feel, and why the poison of racism lingers. It also proves that while racist ideas have always been easy to fabricate and distribute, they can also be discredited.
Through a gripping, fast-paced, and energizing narrative written by beloved award-winner Jason Reynolds, this book shines a light on the many insidious forms of racist ideas - and on ways listeners can identify and stamp out racist thoughts in their daily lives.
What the critics say
An "engrossing and relentless intellectual history of prejudice in America...The greatest service Kendi [provides] is the ruthless prosecution of American ideas about race for their tensions, contradictions and unintended consequences." (Washington Post)
Featured Article: The Best Young Adult Audiobooks For Women Of All Ages
Many people equate "growing up" with "growing serious." But while interests may change over time, age does not have to be the deciding factor in what games you play, movies, or books you enjoy. Young adult novels are the perfect example of this. Though written with a teenage audience in mind, women of all ages are sure to enjoy the genre’s hallmarks: strong yet flawed characters, heartbreaking twists and turns, romance, and drama.

The alternate history book
A reach back in to history to show how social constructs support and promote racism in America today. Read by the author, in a colloquial story telling tone, it reveals how racism perpetuates in society today and call the reader to action to Love All. Powerful. Educational. Eye opening. Loved it.

One of the most eye opening books on racisms history
Check my own unconscious bias
This book is a great read, full of the history of racism and how it still seeps into our own open minded ideas of the world. There is hidden and obvious racist ideas in nearly every every idea about race.
I want more of this book
I want to change my own mind, my child’s mind and ever mind I meet
Thank you for this education.

A great eye-opener!
This book should be in all high schools. It’s powerful, articulate, informative and very assessable. It rewrites history. The message is very clear, and Jason Reynolds’ interpretation of Ibram X Kendi’s original work ‘Stamped from the Beginning’ delivers the message in the simplest, clearest way possible...for such a dense topic. I am listening to this book as a segue into Kendi’s original book, which is much more dense.

informative and entertaining
Racism, anti-racism and history but not a history book that is entertaining and informative. A great overview of some of the racist history affecting the USA.

Much to learn but a great place to start
Excellent narration and a compelling narrative. I really enjoyed the pacing. It claims to be a non-history history book and does a great job of that.
