With the same open-hearted generosity that has made his video series a phenomenon, Acho explains the vital core of such fraught concepts as white privilege, cultural appropriation, and "reverse racism." In his own words, he provides a space of compassion and understanding in a discussion that can lack both. He asks only for the reader's curiosity--but along the way, he will galvanize all of us to join the antiracist fight." -- Provided by publisher. 590 LEASE 2020-12 650 0 Racism|zUnited States. 650 0 Anti-racism. 651 0 United States|xRace relations. 938 Brodart|bBROD|n127290508 938 YBP Library Services|bYANK|n16814346 994 C0|bORL
