This book highlights the work of Rise for Racial Justice, an organization that launched a public racial literacy campaign in 2020 when the nation's interest in exploring the history and present reality of anti-Black police violence was at a high. Protests following the murder of George Floyd focused the public's attention on anti-Black racism, sparking calls for racial justice. There was a resulting demand for antiracism training to help make sense of the ongoing twin pandemics of anti-Black racism and White supremacy. This book makes a unique contribution to the discussion about antiracism training for K-12 school communities. In Rise for Racial Justice: How to Talk About Race With Schools and Communities, the authors draw on the experiences of antiracism facilitators as they teach about race, racism, and racial justice. This book shares curricula, pedagogical strategies, tools, and practices that support the learning and engagement of educators and youth learners. Book Features: Examples of curricula and suggested pedagogy for antiracism training geared toward teachers and other adults in leadership and/or parenting roles. Tools to help school communities talk about race and racism, as well as practices for pursuing racial justice. Practical, narrative-based advice about the opportunities and challenges of engaging in antiracism training.

In 'O' Peniel, Behind the Fans', people use hand fans at church to cover up their indescretions. The preacher, himself, seems to always go out of his way to discover any hidden secrets about people around town. And he has no problem blatantly exposing these secrets directly to that person; while yet still letting others know he knows of those indiscretions in his unsympathetic sermons. He even unexpectedly preached about himself in one of his sermons. But yet, he's still so quick to point out other people's wrongdoings. This makes you wonder if he's unblemished, as well. One person, though, seems to have figured that out early on, but it's not Rhyah. Rhyah, the young girl portrayed as the book's witty narrator, demonstrates that life is full of mishaps and issues and that they are simply a part of life. Thus, we all make mistakes She, too, has created a problematic secret of her own. One, of which she has hid for several months. It's also one, which causes immense frustration and shame upon people. But, she makes a grand revision to her issue by directly confronting 'it'; allowing everyone to know that things like this may walk up on us, but they do not have to overtake our lives. Additionally, the book's theme is given from a (somewhat) biblical perspective that seems to enhance the value of it.
