Ibram X. Kendi Presents How to Be an Antiracist at

Ibram X. Kendi will speak in conversation with Boston Globe’s Renée Graham at the Coolidge Corner Theatre at 6:00pm on August 28th (ticket required).

Ibram X. Kendi’s concept of antiracism reenergizes and reshapes the conversation about racial justice in America—but even more fundamentally, points us toward liberating new ways of thinking about ourselves and each other. In How to be an Antiracist, Kendi asks us to think about what an antiracist society might look like, and how we can play an active role in building it.
