Social Scientist Kurt Lewin said, "No research without action, and
no action without research." Too much of the current DEI
(diversity, equity, and inclusion) approach is insight-based
instead of action-based. Even though institutional racism is
identified as the root problem, the change effort is focused on
looking inward for bias instead of taking action to eliminate
institutional racism and other isms. A Lewinian approach, in
contrast, is balanced. What people think is important, but no more
important than what people do. If you bring people together to
change things, this will change what people think! We don't need
therapy nearly as much as we need action based on dialogue! Instead
of spending your energy soul-searching for evidence in your
thoughts and behaviors that you have unconscious biases, this book
helps put your energy into doing something practical about racism.
To get there, this book uses Lewin's social science to build a
framework for sorting through the many approaches to and positions
held on race, racism, diversity, and related topics. While the
framework is and must be applicable to any prejudice, systemic or
individual, the bulk of this exploration is focused on racism,
which to a large degree has become the primary social justice focus
of our times. Painfully aware that conversations about race can
easily deteriorate into polarization, the author lays a path toward
finding common ground.
