Book Review - Stamped

πŸ“–Recommend for Grades 7 and upπŸ“–
by Jason Reynolds and Ibram X. Kendi
In a remix of Ibram X. Kendi’s Stamped: From the Beginning, Jason Reynolds reveals the history of racist ideas in America, and inspires hope for an antiracist future. He shares how racist views have always existed and why it continues to linger today. Also, while these racist ideas came easily into existence, they can be discredited as well.
You may be thinking, why would you want to read a history textbook? But as Jason Reynolds states, “This is NOT a history book.” While history books can be long, stuffy, and dull, Jason Reynolds shares this narrative freshly and more conversationally. This book also shows a side of history you won’t learn in school.
