| Abstract | "The injustice of racism can only be addressed when we are willing to have the "race conversation." All too often, however, attempts at this conversation are met with silence, denial, anger, or hate. In order to have productive conversations about race and racism, a paradigm shift is needed--one which situates the construct of race not only in our minds, but principally in the body. This will empower us to remain present and embodied rather than constricted with fear, regardless of our racial identities."--Page 4 of cover. |
