The Sum of Us: What Racism Costs Everyone and How We Can Prosper Together by Heather McGhee
informative
reflective
fast-paced
5.0
Heather McGhee tells the story of how racism hurts us all through research and personal anecdotes. Our country is founded on structural racism and has continued to find ways to codify racial fears and the mistaken belief that healthcare, education, voting access, environmental health, and criminal law are a zero sum game. It turns out that everyone suffers under these policies.
