Synopsis

Twelve Steps for White America: For a United States of America answers the revolutionary call of James Baldwin in "The Fire Next Time" for new standards for white Americans.

Educator and former psychotherapist, William Watson presents a treatment plan for democracy, an innovative framework of steps white Americans can take (and all individuals and organizations can incorporate) to eliminate rigged advantage, which relies on white supremacy and anti-Blackness.

Developed to complement the award-winning book by the same name, Twelve Steps for White America: Workbook presents a user-friendly, graphic-rich toolkit that guides you to learn each step and achieve each step's learning outcome. (Step Four is enriched by Christine Sleeter's specially created assessment that contextualizes family history.)

Additionally, Advanced Mastery Exercises challenge you to practice fundamental change principles, counter ideological impermeability, discern the difference between an idealized and realized USA, quantify racial wealth inequality, dismantle the whiteness presumption of whereabouts authority (PWA) over Black Americans, recognize the power dynamics of interruption, practice loving kindness meditation, and implement a daily program of personal practice to consecrate liberty free from rigged advantage.

A propos du livre

À propos de l'auteur

William Watson first learned democracy watching his Mississippi parents risk their lives (and his) in the 1960s Civil Rights Movement. Defying odds set by poverty and alcoholism, Watson earned a social justice-focused doctorate from San Francisco State University and completed a Presidential Fellowship for College Excellence with The Aspen Institute's partnership with Stanford University. After prototyping equity innovations in higher education for over 20 years, he founded Waterbrook, LLC, a USA democracy project inspired by MLK's Beloved Community.
