Stamped From the Beginning

the Definitive History of Racist Ideas in America
Nov 05, 2016LPL_DirectorBrad rated this title 5 out of 5 stars
Dr. Kendi's book is a brilliant distillation of racist ideas in America. Impeccably researched and thoroughly readable, Kendi starts at the beginning (even bringing in Aristotle!) and describes the development and evolution of racist ideas from the precolonial era up to current times. This is historical writing and research at its best. Truly deserved of being a National Book Award finalist. I cannot recommend this book highly enough.
