ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK

"Stamped: Racism, Antiracism, and You" by Jason Reynolds and Ibram X. Kendi is a narrative exploration of the history of racist ideas in America. The book traces the origins of these ideas back to 15th-century Europe and continues to the present day. It examines how these ideas have evolved, adapted, and been used to justify inequality, discrimination and oppression, and explores the actions of those who have challenged racist ideology. The central focus is on understanding the roots of racism, not as a natural occurrence but as a product of constructed narratives used to maintain power. The book does not shy away from the complex and often contradictory roles of historical figures, revealing how their beliefs and actions contributed to or resisted this phenomenon.
