Why Are All The Black Kids Sitting Together In The Cafeteria - Audiolibro Gratis

When Beverly Daniel Tatum wrote her bestselling book on the psychology of racism, Why Are All the Black Kids Sitting Together in the Cafeteria?, she hoped to move people beyond fear, anger, and denial to a better understanding of what racism is, how it impacts us all, and ultimately what we can do about it. Two decades later, that remains a struggle.

Walk into any racially mixed high school cafeteria and you’ll still likely see black, white, and Latino youth clustered in their own groups—a self-segregation extending to college dining halls, faculty lounges, and corporate cafeterias. Tatum, president emerita of Spelman College and a nationally recognized authority on racial issues in the U.S., looks anew at the issue and what she sees as a continued futility in attempting to discuss racial differences.
