Speak Up/Speak Out: Conversations About Race
Tuesday, May 25
2:30-3:30 
p.m.

Join us for virtual community conversations as we continue to discuss race and social justice in Columbus and in America.

Each month we’re choosing a book, article, movie or music selection from our collection to experience and reflect upon together. 

Our moderators and panelists are community leaders who strive to speak up and speak out to address institutional and systemic inequities that face our communities.

 
May Selection: "Why Are All the Black Kids Sitting Together in the Cafeteria?" by Beverly Daniel Tatum
Genre:  Adult nonfiction (2017 revised edition)
Check it out: Available in Book, eBook or eAudiobook 

Walk into any racially mixed high school and you will see Black, White, and Latino youth clustered in their own groups. Is this self-segregation a problem to address or a coping strategy?

Dr. Tatum, a renowned authority on the psychology of racism, argues that straight talk about our racial identities is essential if we are serious about enabling communication across racial and ethnic divides.

First published in 1997, Why Are All the Black Kids Sitting Together in the Cafeteria? was fully revised in 2017 and hit the bestseller list again.
