*This event is now sold out.*

Politics and Prose is thrilled to host this event for Ibram X. Kendi for his new book, How To Be An Antiracist. Kendi's concept of antiracism reenergizes and reshapes the conversation about racial justice in America--but even more fundamentally, points us toward liberating new ways of thinking about ourselves and each other. In How to Be an Antiracist, Kendi asks us to think about what an antiracist society might look like, and how we can play an active role in building it.

Kendi weaves an electrifying combination of ethics, history, law, and science, bringing it all together with an engaging personal narrative of his own awakening to antiracism. How to Be an Antiracist is an essential work for anyone who wants to go beyond an awareness of racism to the next step: contributing to the formation of a truly just and equitable society.

Kendi will be in conversation with Vann R. Newkirk, an American journalist and staff writer for The Atlantic who writes on politics, race, and healthcare policy.
