Showing results for "Ibram X. Kendi" in Politics & Social Sciences

In this rousing and deeply empathetic book, Ibram X. Kendi, founding director of the Antiracism Research and Policy Center, shows that when it comes to racism, neutrality is not an option: until we become part of the solution, we can only be part of the problem. Using his extraordinary gifts as a teacher and storyteller, Kendi helps us recognise that everyone is, at times, complicit in racism whether they realise it or not, and by describing with moving humility his own journey from racism to antiracism, he shows us how instead to be a force for good.

In the deeply accessible mode of his international best seller How to Be an Antiracist, Ibram X. Kendi combines a century of scientific research with a vulnerable and compelling personal narrative to argue that it is only by teaching our children about the reality of racism and the myth of race from the earliest age that we can actually protect them and preserve their innocence and joy. Along the way, he shows that an antiracist society is one that safeguards all children.

Some Americans cling desperately to the myth that we are living in a post-racial society, that the election of the first Black president spelled the doom of racism. In fact, racist thought is alive and well in America - more sophisticated and more insidious than ever. And as award-winning historian Ibram X. Kendi argues in Stamped from the Beginning, if we have any hope of grappling with this stark reality, we must first understand how racist ideas were developed, disseminated, and enshrined in American society.

Some Americans insist that we're living in a post-racial society. But racist thought is not just alive and well in America—it is more sophisticated and more insidious than ever. And as award-winning historian Ibram X. Kendi argues, racist ideas have a long and lingering history, one in which nearly every great American thinker is complicit. In this deeply researched and fast-moving narrative, Kendi chronicles the entire story of anti-black racist ideas and their staggering power over the course of American history.

Après l'espoir suscité par la présidence de Barack Obama, les années au pouvoir de Trump ont bien révélé que les inégalités entre blancs et noirs n'ont pas disparu. La pensée raciste est bien vivante, bien plus sophistiquée et insidieuse que jamais. Dans ce récit trés documenté, Ibram X. Kendi, historien incontournable de l'antiracisme, retrace la longue histoire des idées racistes anti-noires et de leur ancrage au cours de l'histoire américaine, à travers les portraits de cinq grands intellectuels américains.

Be Antiracist imagines what an antiracist society might look like and how we all can play an active role in building one. Dr. Ibram X. Kendi is the author of How to Be an Antiracist, the book that spurred a nationwide conversation redefining what it means to be antiracist, and in this podcast, he guides listeners how they can identify and reject the racist systems hiding behind racial inequity and injustice. Alongside notable guests, Dr. Kendi continues his journey towards building a just and equitable world and proposes how we can all help create it with him.

En 2000, Ibram X. Kendi, jeune étudiant, donna un discours dans le cadre du concours d'éloquence Martin Luther King Jr. et il présenta la jeunesse noire comme la source de tous les problèmes de la communauté. Ce discours raciste déclencha chez lui un processus d'introspection profonde. Véritable manuel d'éthique raciale du XXIe siècle, cet ouvrage met fin à l'idée qu'il est possible de ne pas être raciste.

Tras la elección de Barack Obama, muchos declararon el inicio de una era postracial. Sin embargo, el pensamiento racista, más sofisticado e insidioso que nunca, sigue profundamente arraigado en la sociedad estadounidense. Tal y como argumenta Ibram X. Kendi-la voz más influyente de la lucha antirracista y uno de los referentes actuales del movimiento #BlackLivesMatter-,aunque las ideas racistas se desarrollan, difunden y consagran muy fácilmente, también se las puede desacreditar.
