The White People Show: How To Understand Racism And Still Be Wrong About It

By Kamau Kenyatta

A shrewd, incisive, and uncommon work about racism, anti-racism and the dishonesty surrounding it from Kamau Kenyatta

Kamau Kenyatta has spent more than two decades as a professor of African American Studies.
For a decade of that experience, he taught racism and sexism classes. He has spoken
on these topics in prisons, academic institutions, businesses, and various cultural organizations.

Several years ago, he became annoyed at the rampant ignorance the public has
on the subject of racism. It led him to test his students on the topic over
the years. The results he stumbled upon stunned and perplexed him because he
discovered that 99% of them could not correctly define the term. He began to
notice parallels between his students and the public in general. Both, he realized,
were as uninformed.

At the core of the issue is that White people take no responsibility for racism.
And Black people generally let them get away with it. White people act like surprised
spectators when racism comes up. And Black people think that if we teach them,
some magical light will flicker on in their minds causing them to change. These are
fallacies.

The White People Show will ruffle more than a few feathers because
it goes against the popular and accepted discussions around racism.
This book will challenge and stretch you no matter what you think about
racism or anti-racism because it will compel you to rethink what
you know about individual racism and systemic racism. It's about rightly
defining the term, how white people became racist, and how black people
must approach it for survival. Lastly, it exposes the dishonesty implicit in
any discussion about racism.

If you want clarity in understanding racism and don't know where to look or
whom to trust, then The White People Show is for you.
You don't have to be confused about racism again, EVER!
