Witnessing Whiteness: First Steps Toward an Antiracist Practice and Culture March 15, 2008

Join Under the Bridge Bookstore and Gallery on as we welcome Shelly Tochluk talking about her book "Witnessing Whiteness: First Steps Toward an Antiracist Practice and Culture"
Come learn about a fabulous new resource for people who are new to conversations on race.

Witnessing Whiteness: First Steps Toward an Antiracist Practice and Culture invites people, especially those of European ancestry, to consider their relationship to white privilege and the lingering shadows of racism. In an easy to read style, this book helps people understand why race is still a relevant issue, how race affects people's daily lives, and how to develop the beginnings of an antiracist practice.

This book includes personal testimony from well-respected cultural workers across race, such as Luis Rodriguez (author of Always Running), to offer dialogue that illustrates how whiteness embeds itself in our psyche, lingers through continued social conditioning, and affects cross-race interactions.
