Through the narration of acclaimed author Nic Stone, we follow a young Ibram as he learns (and unlearns) lessons that help shape his understanding of racism. Ibram's life story and Nic's engaging commentary throughout speak directly to the experiences and concerns of young readers, encouraging them to think critically and, in doing so, build a more equitable world. Being antiracist is a journey, not an end goal--and now young people have a map to help them carve their own path.
