Kendi and Jason Reynolds is an essential introduction to the history of racism and antiracism in America</b> <p/><i>RACE. Uh-oh. The R-word. </i> <br><i>But actually talking about race is one of the most important things to learn how to do.</i> <p/>Adapted from the groundbreaking bestseller <i>Stamped: Racism, Antiracism, and You, </i>this book takes readers on a journey from present to past and back again. Kids will discover where racist ideas came from, identify how they impact America today, and meet those who have fought racism with antiracism. Along the way, they'll learn how to identify and stamp out racist thoughts in their own lives. <p/>Ibram X. Kendi's research, Jason Reynolds's and Sonja Cherry-Paul's writing, and Rachelle Baker's art come together in this vital read, enhanced with a glossary, timeline, and more. <p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br> <b>Praise for <i>Stamped: Racism, Antiracism, and You: </i></b><b>#1 <i>New York Times</i> bestseller <br> #1 IndieBound bestseller <br><i>USAToday </i>bestseller </b> <br><b>Wall Street Journal bestseller</b><b>2020 Kirkus Prize finalist <br> A <i>TIME Magazine</i> Ten Best Children's and YA Books of the Year? <br> A <i>Parents Magazine </i>best book of the year <br> A <i>Washington Post</i> Best Children's Book of the Year <br> A <i>Publishers Weekly </i>best book of the year</b> <br><b>An <i>SLJ </i>best book of the year</b> "An amazingly timely and stunningly accessible manifesto for young people....At times funny, at times somber but always packed with relevant information that is at once thoughtful and spot-on, <i>Stamped</i> is the book I wish I had as a young person and am so grateful my own children have now."--<i><b>Jacqueline Woodson, bestselling and National Book Award-winning author of Brown Girl Dreaming</b></i> </br></br>* An epic feat...
