Synopsis: |
What is racism? How does it feel to have people make assumptions or judgments about you because of your race? Most of you have probably experienced racism to some extent. Even when the assumption is about something positive-black people are all great singers, Asians are really smart-it doesn't feel good to be judged by what you are rather than by who you are. Often, people have to deal with prejudices that are far more negative than these. Sometimes these racial ideas are spoken outright, and sometimes they are much more subtle. Many people have racial prejudices they do not even realize they have, but the attitudes still come out when they deal with people of different races. The people in this book have all faced racism. They have been looked down on because of their race, shouldered out of the way by those who believed they were somehow less intelligent or less worthy of human rights. But these people have survived. Many of them still struggle against racial prejudices, refusing to let the beliefs of others determine how they will live their lives. Their stories will speak to you as well.Whatever the prejudices you face in your own life, whether because of race or because of another reason, you will be challenged by these survivors and by their stories. |
