Let's Talk About Race CoverLet’s Talk about Race: A workbook for safe, honest and productive group discussions is the book we need to have targeted discussions about race. Let’s Talk is sprinkled with reader friendly tables, charts, sidebars and hotboxes. It offers proactive, practical, simple steps to begin group race discussions.

Part One consists of six instructional chapters that explain how to begin race discussions and overcome obstacles to encourage safe, honest and productive discussions. Part Two presents a collection of eight essays each complete with discussion questions and homework.

Tensions are high and without open, honest dialogue amongst the races, they will explode. Race conversations, while uncomfortable, are essential to confronting those issues embedded deep within us and our neighbors. How can we expect to confront racism and prejudice and move towards reconciliation if we can’t even talk about it?

Let’s Talk will benefit anyone interested in deepening already established relationships. Anyone involved in a diverse school, family, community group or work environment will gain by using Let’s Talk to enhance interactions
