The White People Show

A young boy walks into a doctor's office. He came through the door marked "For Colored Only." As his grandmother gives her name to the receptionist, he notices the faces on the other side of the room marked "For Whites Only." The patterns in his brain, as a result of the experience, fundamentally changed him forever.

That young boy is author, Kamau Kenyatta. As a Professor of racism and African American Studies, Kenyatta presents challenging and groundbreaking research on the topic of racism in his new book, The White People Show: How To Understand Racism and Still Be Wrong About It.

Are you aware that the average person cannot correctly answer the simple question of what is racism? Even those who are highly educated, well informed, and those whom you think should know the correct definition, will usually answer it wrong. With over two decades of teaching college racism classes and from personal experiences, Kenyatta has discovered that almost 99% of people cannot correctly define racism. The result is needless and useless arguments which lead to confusion.

Do you know what racism means? How would you define it?

This book will help you understand the meaning of racism, and it will give you clarity about what racism is not. Kenyatta not only delves into its meaning, but exposes its early secretive beginnings, and discusses its surprising purpose. He then shows how it impacts our lives today. "My purpose here," says Kenyatta, "is to help bring clarity to a topic that has become muddy, unclear and crammed with confusion."

In this book, you'll learn how to:

• Identify mistakes others make when discussing racism
• Steer clear of time-wasting arguments about racism
• Know where the confusion about racism starts and how to avoid it
• Be confident discussing this sensitive subject
• Separate fact from fiction surrounding racism

If you want clarity about racism and don't know where to look or whom to trust, The White People Show is for you.
