Download or read book Race Talk and the Conspiracy of Silence written by Derald Wing Sue and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2016-02-01 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Turn Uncomfortable Conversations into Meaningful Dialogue If you believe that talking about race is impolite, or that "colorblindness" is the preferred approach, you must read this book. Race Talk and the Conspiracy of Silence debunks the most pervasive myths using evidence, easy-to-understand examples, and practical tools. This significant work answers all your questions about discussing race by covering: Characteristics of typical, unproductive conversations on race Tacit and explicit social rules related to talking about racial issues Race-specific difficulties and misconceptions regarding race talk Concrete advice for educators and parents on approaching race in a new way "His insistence on the need to press through resistance to have difficult conversations about race is a helpful corrective for a society that prefers to remain silent about these issues." —Christopher Wells, Vice President for Student Life at DePauw University "In a Canadian context, the work of Dr. Derald Wing Sue in Race Talk: and the Conspiracy of Silence is the type of material needed to engage a populace that is often described as 'Too Polite.' The accessible material lets individuals engage in difficult conversations about race and racism in ways that make the uncomfortable topics less threatening, resulting in a true 'dialogue' rather than a debate." —Darrell Bowden, M Ed. Education and Awareness Coordinator, Ryerson University "He offers those of us who work in the Diversity and Inclusion space practical tools for generating productive dialogues that transcend the limiting constraints of assumptions about race and identity." —Rania Sanford, Ed.D. Associate Chancellor for Strategic Affairs and Diversity, Stanford University "Sue's book is a must-read for any parent, teacher, professor, practioner, trainer, and facilitator who seeks to learn, understand, and advance difficult dialogues about issues of race in classrooms, workplaces, and boardrooms. It is a book of empowerment for activists, allies, or advocates who want to be instruments of change and to help move America from silence and inaction to discussion, engagement, and action on issues of difference and diversity. Integrating real life examples of difficult dialogues that incorporate the range of human emotions, Sue provides a masterful illustration of the complexities of dialogues about race in America. More importantly, he provides a toolkit for those who seek to undertake the courageous journey of understanding and facilitating difficult conversations about race." —Menah Pratt-Clarke, JD, PhD, Associate Provost for Diversity, University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Book 2 in the sexy GLAM rom-com series about a group of gloriously geeky ladies. Chantal Koffi is sure she isn’t good enough. After taking the dive years ago and publishing her webcomic online, she’s watched, disheartened, as the meager fruits of her labor trickle in. She knew making a living from her work was a pipe dream, but she pinned her hopes and dreams on it coming true. Since the art that holds true meaning for her isn’t paying her bills, she’s settled for channeling her abilities into an uninspiring graphic artist career. While she’s not above doing what’s necessary to make ends meet, the everyday proof that her art is only good at suckering hapless consumers into buying products they don’t need is soul-crushing. However, a chance meeting with a friend’s coworker reminds her that her art isn’t the only thing that matters to her. Marcus Tang is everything she’s ever wanted in a guy: sexy, sensitive, funny, intelligent, and an artist like her. Her attraction to him can’t be denied, and it isn’t long before she finds herself falling for him. But when a literary agent expresses interest in Marcus’s novel, Chantal is forced to contend with a stark reality. As thrilled for him as she is, she can’t ignore how painful it is to watch him find the success that continues to elude her. Then an unexpected disaster upends her delicate balancing act, and she must face the possibility that, while her love for Marcus is strong, she may not be strong enough to fight for it.
