About
Author Brendan Kiely starts a conversation with white kids about race in this accessible introduction to white privilege, allyship, and anti-racism.
Every Black kid gets "the talk." The talk about where to keep their hands, how to wear their clothes, how to speak, how to act around police-all to stay safe and stay alive as a Black person in a racist world.
White kids don't get this talk. Instead, they're barely spoken to about race at all-and that needs to change.
The Other Talk comes from many years of discussion between Brendan Kiely and Jason Reynolds, with Jason encouraging Brendan to begin this much-needed conversation. Brendan's accessible, anecdotal, and honest account introduces young readers to white privilege, unconscious bias, and allyship-because racism isn't just a Black issue, it's a human issue, and it's time we all start doing our part.
