Description: FREE SHIPPING UK WIDE Why Does Everything Have to Be About Race? by Keith Boykin Some arguments about race refuse to go away. Its time, once and for all, to shatter them. FORMAT Hardcover CONDITION Brand New Publisher Description The most toxic racial arguments share one of five traits. They try to erase Black history, prioritize white victimhood, deny Black oppression, promote myths of Black inferiority, or rebrand racism as something else entirely. Theyre all designed to distract society from racial justice, but now we have the tools to debunk them. With a mixture of personal experience, reportage, and extensive research, Keith Boykin takes a wrecking ball to twenty-five of the most widespread deceptions about race, such as:* The Civil War was about states rights, not slavery* Affirmative action is reverse discrimination* Critical Race Theory is indoctrinating children to hate one another and shows us how to refute lies, myths, and misinformation with history, knowledge, and truth.
