Ibram X Kendi talks to Deray Mckesson at the Edinburgh International Book Festival
We all occasionally do things that are racist, yet often fail to recognise them. Ibram X Kendi is a founding director of the Antiracist Research and Policy Center in Washington DC. How To Be an Antiracist is his extraordinary, inspiring guidebook which helps build a vital new understanding of racism – and how to work against it. In this event recorded live at the 2019 Edinburgh International Book Festival, this superb teacher and storyteller talks to educator and activist DeRay Mckesson, a key figure in the Black Lives Matter movement.
