Mine To Do: Responding to Race Based Hatred and Violence Kindle Edition
by Tracy Brown (Author) Format: Kindle Edition
4.8 out of 5 stars 6 ratings
This book is a sharing of thoughts and emotions related to the topic of race-based hatred and violence.
Instead of focusing on statistics, demographics or politics, this book reminds us of the many ways racism impacts our daily functioning. Each essay encourages the reader to consider what specific things can be done to build relationships that are based on respect and fairness.
Tracy shares information and ideas to help individuals navigate their personal journey in a multi-ethnic, multi-cultural society. If we want to see change in our world, each one of us must answer the question, “What is Mine to Do?”
The day after the Charleston murders, Tracy found herself sitting in a jury room considering whether she, a black woman, could be a fair and impartial juror in a case where a young white man killed 9 innocent people because of the color of their skin. What happened as a result of that morning has become an unexpected call to action for all people committed to mutual respect or willing to take a stand for fairness.
In addition to the thought-provoking quotations included throughout the book, there is a helpful collection of inspiration quotes provided at the end.
