| A friendly reminder that we all have racist ideas, and acknowledging that - rather than being defensive or appalled at the idea - is the first step in creating a truly antiracist society. Ibram X. Kendi's "How to Be an Antiracist" is a very illuminating book about how racism runs through all of us and what we can do to make meaningful societal change. |

| I had no idea who Professor Kendi was until you began mentioning him in your posts. Recently he has made some appearances on MSNBC, in particular on Morning Joe. He's an interesting guy, very respectful, deliberate, and measured. I was impressed that he defended General Mark Milley against attacks by U.S. Rep. Matt Gaetz. I wonder if he would consider writing a play based on How to Be an Antiracist in a form similar to Heidi Schreck's What the Constitution Means to Me. |

| He does weave his personal narrative through the book, so it could be turned into something like a play or a one-person TED Talk type show. | |
