Stamped: Racism, Antiracism, and You is a powerful and eye-opening book that delves into the history of racism in America. Written by acclaimed authors Jason Reynolds and Ibram X. Kendi, this book is a revised version of Kendi's original book Stamped from the Beginning, intended for a younger audience.
The book is divided into several sections that explore the history of racism from its origins to the present day. Reynolds and Kendi provide a comprehensive overview of how racism has evolved over time and how it continues to impact society today. They also discuss the concept of antiracism and how individuals can work towards creating a more equitable and just society.
One of the strengths of Stamped is its engaging and accessible writing style. Reynolds and Kendi use language that is easy to understand, making complex concepts and ideas more digestible for readers of all ages.
