Download We Gon' Be Alright: Notes on Race and Resegregation AudioBook Free
In these provocative, powerful essays, acclaimed copy writer/journalist Jeff Chang (Can't Stop Won't Stop, Who We Be) needs an incisive and wide-ranging look at the recent tragedies and popular protests that have shaken the country. Through deep reporting with key activists and thinkers, passionately personal writing, and distinguished social criticism, We Gon' Be Alright links #BlackLivesMatter to #OscarsSoWhite, Ferguson to Washington, DC, the fantastic Migration to resurgent nativism. Chang explores the surge and street to redemption of the idea of diversity, the root base of student protest, changing ideas about Asian Americanness, and the impact of a century of racial parting in property. He argues that resegregation is the unexamined condition of our time, the undoing of which is paramount to moving the nation forward to racial justice and social equity.
