Racism - Mari Bolte - Bog

The topic of racism is a divisive one for Americans, especially as stories of racial profiling, police brutality, and discrimination increase and go viral every day. This nonfiction social studies title for young adults examines the history, power, and effects of racism in the United States, focusing on Indigenous and American Indian segregation, Chinese exclusion, Hispanic and Muslim prejudice, and the legacy of slavery within the Black community. It explores anti-minority laws and bias, cultural appropriation, 14th Amendment cases, and rights inequalities. Includes sidebars, a glossary, a timeline, and profiles of George Floyd and writer Ta-Nehisi Coates.
