Catherine Meeks: Bridging the Rivers of Difference, Gebunden

Klappentext

A call for unity in the face of growing dehumanization of marginalized people-from a powerful voice in the dialogue on racism today.

The walk back on a commitment to diversity, equity and inclusion. The silence across communities as the undocumented, primarily Latino population faces attack. The grandstanding of nationalism and the intersection with white supremacy and ideas of genetic superiority. These issues are not temporary. This moment, leading voice on racism Meeks argues, shows that othering is alive and well in America. This is a continuation of systemic racism, which seems to continue indefinitely. She believes the United States is complicit in continuing the destabilization of other countries and the cycles of ethnic cleansing. Within Black communities, there is a hesitance to join the conversation. Meeks believes that the fight is one that demands unity. Resistance is necessary to dispel hierarchies of human value and combat the failure of institutions.
