The Books Oracle
by Ibram X. Kendi
Ibram X. Kendi traces the history of racist ideas in America from their origins to the present day, arguing that racist policies have always preceded and shaped racist ideas rather than the reverse. This ambitious work reframes the narrative of American history through the lens of racism's intellectual development. Winner of the National Book Award, it offers a paradigm-shifting analysis of how racist thinking has been constructed and perpetuated across centuries.
