Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Those looking to move beyond performative allyship will find this an excellent resource.” —Publishers Weekly What if there were a set of rules to educate people against race-based social faux pas that damage relationships, perpetuate racist stereotypes, and harm people of color? This book provides just that in an effort to slow the malignant domino effect of race-based ignorance in American communities and workplaces to help address the vestiges of our nation's racist past. Race Rules is an innovative, practical manual for white people of the unwritten rules relating to race, explaining the unvarnished truth about racist and offensive white behaviors. It offers a unique lens from Fatimah Gilliam, a light-skinned Black woman, and is informed by the revealing things white people say when they don't realize she's Black. Presented as a series of race rules, this book has each chapter tackling a specific topic many people of color wish white people understood. Combining history and explanations with practical advice, it goes beyond the theoretical by focusing on what's implementable. Gilliam addresses issues such as: Racial blinders and misperceptions White privilege Racial stereotypes Everyday choices and behaviors that cause racial harm Introducing a straightforward universal three-step framework to unlearn racism and challenge misconceptions, this book offers readers a chance to change behaviors and shift mindsets to better navigate cross-racial interactions and relationships. Through its race etiquette guidelines, it teaches white people to become action-oriented racism disruptors instead of silent, complicit supporters of white supremacy.

Book The Hidden Rules of Race

Download or read book The Hidden Rules of Race written by Andrea Flynn and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2017-09-08 with total page 237 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why do black families own less than white families? Why does school segregation persist decades after Brown v. Board of Education? Why is it harder for black adults to vote than for white adults? Will addressing economic inequality solve racial and gender inequality as well? This book answers all of these questions and more by revealing the hidden rules of race that create barriers to inclusion today. While many Americans are familiar with the histories of slavery and Jim Crow, we often don't understand how the rules of those eras undergird today's economy, reproducing the same racial inequities 150 years after the end of slavery and 50 years after the banning of Jim Crow segregation laws. This book shows how the fight for racial equity has been one of progress and retrenchment, a constant push and pull for inclusion over exclusion. By understanding how our economic and racial rules work together, we can write better rules to finally address inequality in America.

Book Rules of the Race

    Book Details:
  • Author : Henry Fellows
  • Publisher : iUniverse
  • Release : 2017-09-19
  • ISBN : 1532031246
  • Pages : 220 pages

Download or read book Rules of the Race written by Henry Fellows and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2017-09-19 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Racism is a two-way street, and integration is a long and bumpy road. With a harmonious blend of both secular and spiritual perspective, Rules of the Race is an inspirational coming-of-age story about teenage racism in the turbulent decade following the Civil Rights Act of 1964. The story begins in the relative innocence of 1962 on the day the Cain family is relocating from Weirton, West Virginia, to Indianapolis, Indiana. Johnny Tommy is only six years old when he misunderstands his fathers words. He envisions purple people, as his father advises that there will be colored children in his new school. Johnny Tommy Cain is an athletically aggressive child, but he is plagued with self-doubt as his mind is troubled by repeated errors in judgment. He learns about many of lifes unwritten rules through playing sports, but he learns about sensitivity to others from his exposure to the differences created by race, religion, and gender. Johnny Tommy evolves into the adolescent known as JT. Beginning in 1968, he is victimized by a series of racial assaults, and his childhood boldness gives way to fear. He stays put for several years as the phenomena of white flight takes place around him. Ultimately, a climax occurs shortly after the last-straw incident, causing his mother to make the heartbreaking decision to send him back to Weirton to live with his grandparents. JT returns to Weirton feeling like a coward and suffering from depression. Through sports, however, he befriends two black students at what is an almost all-white school. And it is through these relationships and a visit from his cousin Karen that JTs perspective becomes balanced, his confidence is restored, and he finds the courage to forgive both others and himself.

Book The Rules in Practice 2021 2024

Download or read book The Rules in Practice 2021 2024 written by Bryan Willis and published by Fernhurst Books Limited. This book was released on 2020-11-21 with total page 221 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rules in Practice has been the best-selling guide to the racing rules for the last 40 years. Now, in its 10th edition, it has been updated for (and contains in full) the 2021-2024 Racing Rules of Sailing and features a brand new chapter on the luffing rules and how they are being applied. The latest rule changes are also described, along with their impact on you as a sailor. With over 20 new scenarios, reflecting the courses we now sail, it is as up-to-date and relevant as the first edition was in 1985. Unlike other rules guides which take you through the rules in order, this book tackles the subject from the sailors' point of view. It takes you around the race course, from start to finish, through the key situations that occur repeatedly showing, from the point of view of each boat in turn, what you may, must, or cannot do. You don't have to know all the rules off by heart, but you do need to know your rights and obligations on the water – the rules can be looked up afterwards. This knowledge will build your confidence while racing and enable you to make the most of opportunities when they arise. Colour diagrams throughout ensure concepts are easily understood. If you are going to buy one rule book – make it this one! (As dictated by World Sailing, the eBook does not contain the Racing Rules of Sailing but has a link to them.)

  • Author : Anthony Christian Ocampo
  • Publisher : Stanford University Press
  • Release : 2016-03-02
  • ISBN : 0804797579
  • Pages : 270 pages

Download or read book The Latinos of Asia written by Anthony Christian Ocampo and published by Stanford University Press. This book was released on 2016-03-02 with total page 270 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This “ groundbreaking book . . . is essential reading not only for the Filipino diaspora but for anyone who cares about the mysteries of racial identity” (Jose Antonio Vargas, Pulitzer Prize–winning journalist). Is race only about the color of your skin? In The Latinos of Asia, Anthony Christian Ocampo shows that what “color” you are depends largely on your social context. Filipino Americans, for example, helped establish the Asian American movement and are classified by the US Census as Asian. But the legacy of Spanish colonialism in the Philippines means that they share many cultural characteristics with Latinos, such as last names, religion, and language. Thus, Filipinos’ “color” —their sense of connection with other racial groups—changes depending on their social context. The Filipino story demonstrates how immigration is changing the way people negotiate race, particularly in cities like Los Angeles where Latinos and Asians now constitute a collective majority. Amplifying their voices, Ocampo illustrates how second-generation Filipino Americans’ racial identities change depending on the communities they grow up in, the schools they attend, and the people they befriend. Ultimately, The Latinos of Asia offers a window into both the racial consciousness of everyday people and the changing racial landscape of American society.
