Description
A School Library Journal Best Book of the Year
Award-winning and New York Times bestselling author Brendan Kiely starts a conversation with white kids about race in this “well-executed and long overdue” (Kirkus Reviews, starred review) introduction to white privilege and why allyship is so vital.
Talking about racism can be hard, but...
Most kids of color grow up doing it. They have “The Talk” with their families—the honest talk about survival in a racist world.
But white kids don’t. They’re barely spoken to about race at all—and that needs to change. Because not talking about racism doesn’t make it go away. Not talking about white privilege doesn’t mean it doesn’t exist.
The Other Talk begins this much-needed conversation for white kids. In an instantly relatable and deeply honest account of his own life, Brendan Kiely offers young readers a way to understand one’s own white privilege and why allyship is so vital, so that we can all start doing our part—today.

"All too many kids of color get "the talk." The talk about where to keep their hands, how to wear their clothes, how to speak, how to act around police--an honest talk, a talk about survival in a racist world. They get "the talk" because they must. But white kids don't get this talk. Instead, they're barely spoken to about race at all--and that needs to change. The Other Talk begins this much-needed conversation for white kids. In an accessible, anecdotal, and honest account from his own life, Brendan Kiely introduces young readers to white privilege, unconscious bias, and allyship--because racism isn't just an issue for people of color, it's an issue white people have to deal with, too, and it's time we all start doing our part"--
