Winner of the 2022 ECPA Christian Book Award for Faith & Culture How do we effectively confront racial injustice?

How to Fight Racism introduces a simple framework—the A.R.C. Of Racial Justice—that teaches readers to consistently interrogate their own actions and maintain a consistent posture of anti-racist behavior. The A.R.C. Of Racial Justice is a clear model for how to think about race in productive ways: - Awareness: educate yourself by studying history, exploring your personal narrative, and grasping what God says about the dignity of the human person. - Relationships: understand the spiritual dimension of race relations and how authentic connections make reconciliation real and motivate you to act. - Commitment: consistently fight systemic racism and work for racial justice by orienting your life to it. Now with a new preface and additional content, Tisby offers practical tools for following this model and suggests that by applying these principles, we can help dismantle a social hierarchy long stratified by skin color. He encourages rejection passivity and active participation in the struggle for human dignity. There is hope for transforming our nation and the world, and you can be part of the solution.
