Taking role as Non-Racist is too passive & accepting. It allows you to say that you are taking part in something while still having comfortable ties with racist ideas. Becoming Anti-Racist is more than radical, it& #39;s necessary. Socially implanted issues are not going to change
until we are ACTIVELY against it. That looks like calling racism out. That looks like separating yourself from racist people & activities. That looks like believing the stories/explanations of black, brown, & indigenous people. Seeking out opportunities to empower them. Doing the
required research to understand the history of how institutions & systems were intentionally created to discredit, dehumanize, and abuse black, brown, & indigenous people.
I will heavily encourage anyone to read Stamped From the Beginning by @DrIbram

Since this thread was started, (inspired by @/DrIbram& #39;s "Stamped From the Beginning") he has since published a book titled How to be an Anti-Racist.
