Are We Born Racist?

“Revolutionary insight follows revolutionary insight in this broadly accessible book, accumulating to nothing less than a paradigm shift that will change how we think about everything from how prejudice affects our own lives to how laws and institutional practice can be used to reduce its ill effects. And it does it all with a brevity that I hope will insure what it deserves most: to be broadly read.”
—Claude M. Steele, author of Whistling Vivaldi: And Other Clues to How Stereotypes Affect Us
 
“Are We Born Racist? presents the latest science in the most accessible format and faces typically skirted issues head-on, all while serving up practical advice and abundant hope. The evidence and perspectives offered by this valuable book will pave the way to more frank and frequent talk about race.”
—Barbara Fredrickson, author of Positivity
 
“In this slender multidisciplinary analysis, scientists, novelists, and religious leaders examine the roots of racial prejudice and possible antidotes. . . . A snapshot of contemporary research into and activism around ending racism.”
