Why Are All the Black Kids Sitting Together in the Cafeteria?: And Other Conversations About Race Audiobook (Free)

Summary:

The classic, bestselling book over the psychology of racism — now fully revised and updated

Walk into any racially blended high school and you’ll see Black, White, and Latino youngsters clustered in their own groups. Is certainly this self-segregation a problem to address or a coping strategy? Beverly Daniel Tatum, a renowned authority on the mindset of racism, argues that straight talk about our racial identities is essential if we are seriously interested in enabling conversation across racial and cultural divides. These topics have only become more urgent as the national conversation about race is significantly acrimonious. This completely revised edition is essential reading for anyone wanting to understand the dynamics of competition in America.
