Summary

Why does this book matter? It is a way to break through white fragility and people of color anger in one room. Some of the nation's most respected leaders and luminaries on race and culture share what we need to know to dig our way out of this ditch of racism in the 21st century. In A Safe Place to Talk About Race, Sharon E. Davis highlights 10 fascinating guests interviewed on her VoiceAmerica talk show, A Safe Place to Talk About Race. No one escapes the impact of race in the US...no one.

This book is a way to help break the ‘’Don’t Talk Rule’’ on race and culture together. It is also a support system to sort out fact from fiction for ALL members of our human family. It quickly fills in missing pieces of valuable information. Callers and social media listeners also helped guide what people really want to know. Some of the most emotionally charged subjects include:

  • How do White people deal with the oft-dreaded phrase, “White Privilege”?
  • Do you have to first reduce racism to increase K-12 education test scores in urban schools?
  • How are Asian-Americans really fairing as a "Model Minority"?

If you’re looking for a way to cut through the noise of news headlines, this easy-to-understand book is geared for individuals, classes, book clubs, families, and community organizations. Chapter interviews also include an introduction, point-by-point sections, summary, stimulating and provoking questions, and space for notes.
