Bestselling author and National Book Award winner, Dr. Ibram X. Kendi (@dribram), tells us how to unleash the power of storytelling to create transformative change at #SXSW 2024.

@DrIbram

@DrIbram X. Kendi’s advice to children: Learn the skill of talking about race.

I wonder if Dr. Kendi has that skill.

If so, we need to teach children to mind-read people’s true racist thoughts, to misrepresent others' words, and to smear others as racists & wannabe enslavers...

snagged a copy of @DrIbram's new book!

1. In his book for children, @DrIbram X. Kendi writes: “Talking about race is one of the most important skills you can learn.”
2. Inez talks about race with Dr. Kendi.
3. Kendi claims Inez believes “the racial groups are not equals”, that she believes “racial inequity is good”.

1. You are a scholar. @DrIbram
2. You tell children, “Talking about race is one of the most important skills you can learn.” [SFK,p3]
3. Somebody challenges your ideas about race.
4. You don’t talk to them.
5. You smear them– as a person who wants to segregate, exploit & enslave.

What a time we had last week at #ISTELive23 !

Telling the story of race and and the evolution of racist ideology intelligently, honestly and with humor is the secret sauce of the new graphic novel “Stamped From The Beginning” by author Dr. Ibram X. Kendi @DrIbram and illustrator Joel Christian Gill. pod.fo/e/18bfd1

'If QAnon Republicans really cared about white children, then they would be worried about white-supremacist grooming. This is the grooming that parents of all children should be worried about,' @DrIbram writes:

@DrIbram When did you start capitalizing “White?”

You can enjoy my conversation with Dr. Ibram X. Kendi @DrIbram and Joel Christian Gill on how their new graphic novel “Stamped” frames racism in two lights: the segregationist view and the assimilationist view and exactly what do these two views mean?

@DrIbram You’re not white so you don’t get to speak on this, that’s how your bullshit works right?

@DrIbram Literally no one is arguing against white kids being taught about the history of racism.

Annoyingserf Papa Oso @DrIbram Protected my rights from who? Goat herders?

Jon Sutz @DrIbram This doesn’t make him any 💵💵💵💵 So it will be ignored.

@DrIbram It's the parents and grandparents of those kids that feel 'bad' ( defensively angry )

Arghavan Salles, MD, PhD @DrIbram Stop that! Whites are not supreme!
